INITIAL RESPONSE: Nice and not easy shot. Would have prefered a motion trail on the ball. Good light for a night shot well balanced. Bother bu the dysimetric cropping of the 'panel'.
COMPOSITION-CONTENT - That was not an easy shot ;-) I wonder how many times you tried it. Its a very nice stop motion shot. Very valid for the challenge even if I think most of the people would love to see a motion trail behing the ball.
Somehow I am distracted by the dysimetric amout of black above and below the 'basket panel' , I think in that case it would have been better to crop a little more at the bottom. Very nice angle.
CAMERA WORK-TECHNICAL- The light homogeneity all over the shot is impressive. It looks perfect to e. Depth of field is adequate.
DIGITAL PROCESSING - TECHNICAL - Nothing specific to say so .. perfect to me.
MY OPINION ON THE PHOTO - Almost everything said .. I like the shot, I would have shown more black above (I do not know what your original shot was). I would prefer that rather than to crop the bottom because I think the balck empty space does bring something.
Nice shot anyway ... and probably not an easy one. Congratulations.
What an incredible idea for an angle!!! .....what I would GIVE for this shot to have the motion trail of the ball .. even a little... that said without knowing if it is possible, and disregarding the difficulty (as wishes often do).
A very nice photo, but doesn't really scream motion to me.
Whould have been nice if there was a blur trail on the ball - but you would have needed a lot more light for that.
i admire your night shot. i am still working on how to shoot at night without seeing parts of my image bleached slightly. if you have any suggestions please email me at blick237@cs.com! great shot
interesting angle on this shot. That one star in the sky, or maybe dust on the lens seems a bit out of place, and the backboard could have been centered to the picture. Overall not bad.
