It's ok. My first impression. Sorry. The image is technically fine overall, but nothing giving that 'wow' impression. Know what I mean? Not that you have much control over the background in this scenario, but I think for this image to really work the player should be a little more isolate. JMO of course. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

nice idea, but, if you really want this image to zing, it could use some work. first, you need to get in position so that the guy in the background isn't in the background. next, you caught this just as he was getting ready to start his forward motion. imagine the shot you would have if you had caught the ball just leaving his fingertips? lastly, it's a little soft. to nail stop motion, you need to be at 1/500 at an absolute minimum. fast action like this needs at least 1/1000 or faster.

ny giants - nice :-) it's a great shot of the player, but unfortunately the guy behind him (and that vehicle) is distracting. good idea, though
