Shouldn't have waited til the last minute. I rushed these shots and barely found one I like. To make it worse, I thought I hid the text on the ball, since I grabbed a kids T-ball instead of baseball. Well, let's see how many of you notice that.

This was combination light paint and remote flash on background.

Very interesting shot. Just about feels like I'm looking at a shot to be used in a newspaper under a headline: "such and such a player has been using steroids." The feeling shows.
Very interesting social comment and one that works well IMO
I like the composition and normally would say more contrast needed but somehow due the the message here I think the pale works well.
Only down side is the shadow but it's an 8 from me
Another creative image that could be an excellant Public Service Announcement. A different background might, or might not, have improved this a little. A powerful statement of an unfortunate era of baseball. Well done.
