Setup by holding the frisbee in place with a big tube of card - cheap copout, but saved 200 stop motion shots.
Again all manual WB, exposure etc. No flash used, didn't want to use flash becasue i wanted a little bit of movement, so I overexposed by 2 stops to maintain a healthy white.

This had to be hard to pull off. The "problem" with this image, for me, is that too much of it has to be out of focus. Technically it's wonderful, but visually it's hard to keep looking at it.
This is fantastic - doesn't evoke the sentiment strongly - it's rather a literal interpretation for my liking - but the image itself is just excellent. I love that approach of focusing on the frisbee and having the young guy out of focus. This would have been great in shallow DOF too! Great use of composition, colour and DOF.
This is good, but the only reason it lacks a bit of "wow" factor is that it seems like the photographer is just holding the frisbee out in front of the camera. I'd want to see the whole frisbee, but that would be harder to do.
