Yup its a set up! I hope you all won't be hating on it LOL.
Cropped, Cloned out, burned the parachute cord holding up the black ball, cloned out 2 small hot spots on the red ball, hue & saturation, curves, USM, re-size and save for the web. I hope this passes muster. If not it was fun shooting this. Used 5 lights for this shot. 2 SB-800's, 2 400ws mono lights and the on camera flash to trigger everything. Took about 1.5 hours to set up including the safety precautions of dealing with a falling bowling ball.

Great shot! Excellent studio work. A bit of sweat on the subject to add realism, great expression, suitable title that relates to the subject...perfectly done. 10
Oh don't tell me this guy is juggling bowling balls! LOL
And if he's not, where is the motion. And if he is, how the heck is he doing it. Leaves the viewer wondering what they are seeing.
