I voted this image a 5. My reasoning behind my vote is a two fold. First it's a great timing shot, its the decisive moment of that play. But the detail in the shot seems be muddied up. My guess is very large crop and an image that wasn't super sharp in this area to begin with. Would it run in the paper, if this was a telling part of the story yes it could. Would it stand alone on it's own if it were insignificant in the outcome of the game? Not likely. As stated sharpness is an issue with it, best I can tell the player sliding either is just in the out of focus plane or has motion blur, at 1/1600 I find it hard to believe that it's motion blur, but might be as the catcher who is still seems to be acceptably sharp. This would be an image I'd write a cut line for and turn in, but the editor would likely not make a selection to use it unless it was the final play of the game and decided it. |
