Two boys were playing hacky sack on the Plaza in Taos - a little crowd had gathered to watch. This was the best picture I could get to make one of the players stand out. Wish I could have gotten more of the people in the background included and less of the car. The boys were jumping around so much kicking the hacky sack that they were really hard to photograph.

good stop action capture. I know you cropped the way you did for the challenge but I see a much stronger composition if you cropped behind the boy's left arm.
great timing. moving the camera slightly to the right might have positioned the player and his footbag in a more pleasing manner. But...its a candid after all :)
