A "How to" on this one would be a learning experience. As I look I see the photo has been validated which tells me somebody else would like to know "How to" as well.
Always take the validation requests as a compliment.
WOW! The darkness of the glove, crisp focus on the ball, and background sky is incredible. This shot is very surreal looking. If you didn't do much editing to this shot, I bow down to your skills!
Really nice shot. I think it would be better with more light on the glove, but that would be pretty hard to accomplish in this setting. Still, I like the photo as it is. Good job.
This is really really cool. I wish I could see more detail on the glove, but that's minor. Also, wish the glove was a bit less in the centre, but that's minor. Good luck - 9
Technically, the player (or at least their hand) is in the photo. It is a very nice shot none the less. I like how you have captured the ball in the clearing of the clouds.
