it's a nice action shot, but i think using the fence as a frame doesn't really work aesthetically. there seems to be some fringing too, which i think might be reduceable with a bit of noise reduction software. it's a pity that the rules don't let you blur the background a bit, as i think it takes away attention from the lads. forgetting the frame element of the picture, it's otherwise quite captivating - it has a story, a certain depth, and is fun. you care if the ball is caught or not (though the title is a giveaway - should have called it "Strike?" :) ). 6.

Nice idea. The white sky doesn't help though. Shooting from a different angle might have worked better.

Nice use of the pesky chain-link fence to create a frame. Great timing to get the ball in the shot.
