After my Mac caught a virus (yes, you better believe it, they do exist those pesky os x germs), I thought that this image was lost forever. It ate a raw file, but did not harm a developed copy.
Canon 1D Mark2, 1.4/35

I agree with you 100%. In addition to numerous sporting events where I was accredited, I shot US Open tennis professionaly from 2000 to 2002. It is certainly exciting, technically challenging and labor-intensive, but has nothing to do with art.

This is one of my favourites for the challenge, I love the symmetry of action on both sides and stillness in the middle. My only complaint is that its not quite the full 640 pixels, an extra 10% size would make this a bit easier to view and would be a 10 from me, but for now it’s a 9
This is a very neat photo but I dont see how you relate it to action. I'm not sure if this was staged or if you were just waiting for the right moment but the only suggestion I would make is to have the two doors open the same amount. The left door for instance is a little distracting with the over exposed portion.
