The camera was placed on the grass of the croquet court with a wide angle lens. The exposure was taken on self timer as I rolled one croquet ball into the frame towards another ball. I would have liked to have had more late afternoon shadow, but we have had nothing but rain for weeks!

Great setting! The colors appear a little muddy on my monitor and I might have straightened a bit more. The movement of the yellow ball is interesting. Croquet as a team sport stretches it a bit, but I didn't weigh that heavily in my score.
I love the idea, but the blurring feels like a double image more than a motion blur... Just the way it comes across. Maybe a slightly slower shutter? I do think this is very creative.
