I got this right away I thought of Barry Bonds because of the home plate.
It might be better focus on the bottom of the home plate instead of the top is great depth of field just for these people in this club.

The angle on this is a bit odd for me. I like the concept.

Nice idea (sports/doping concept) but wretched execution.

OK, I'm feeling dumb. What part of this says either Triumph or False Triumph? I keep trying to decipher what I think is a soccer trophy placard to see what is written - thinking that will clear up my confusion. Hmmmm.

Interesting take on the challenge - Nice small point of focus but a little too staged looking and a tad boring.

I think you probably had a good idea, but I'm not getting it. Is that a sports trophy? The angle is so steep I can't really tell.
