 Just a plain basketball standard, but I've always liked the lines and shapes of them from beneath. I didn't bother changing to my 19mm lens and I wasn't going to lie down on the VERY freshly re-paved court, so in order to get a square crop I had to add a bit to the top, then select the sky color and do a flood fill of everything except the standard. Definitely not basic editing, in other words.

The only thing I don't like about this picture is the shadow of the net on the backboard not being centered, but you can't have everything.
