Basketball and shadows
I took several pics of these guys, many getting the ball in midair and exposing the sky better, but something I like about this one.
I'd love to hear your thoughts.
I agree - I just looked and looked. I like it too and would not want to point out any problems with it because it has held my attention.
Well done Chris

Same here, only I think I realise what I was looking for was the ball on it's way into the basket.
This is a real moody shot, great lighting. __________

Don't quite let this one - it's neither one thing nor the other to me.
I think I would like it more if there was a tighter crop around the players. I also think the hot spot in the sky detracts. But, the subject matter is worth pursuing.
The cropping seemed like a pretty good idea. I think I did some other things to it as well but I can't remember what. Does this work better? The second one focuses more on the subject, the first one more on the scene. Wow, I can't believe how different this one looks compared to my computer. Once on the internet it looks quite bland.
Dooda Have a look at this thread I created a while back. Your problem may be the one I had & fixed. Edit: Ooops. Dooda, just noticed you've been there before! Peter

Yes, I think the tighter look improves it significantly dooda.
Dave - another viewpoint - I actually still prefer the original as it has the space around to show the isolation of the action within the frame and the loneliness of the location

Yes I remember it. But I suck at doing searches and would never have found it. Also thinking back to the solution, I don't think I had a single clue as to what you guys were talking about. I'll go back now and have a tinker.
I like the original much better - more space and mood and much more original than the cropped version, which has more of a "same old" feel for me.
The first version immediately grabbed my attention.
