Wilbur (from the "Meet the Robinson's" movie) throwing a baseball (well I hope it sort of looks like it since he has no arms)

LOL, it does look like he's enthusiastic about playing ball!

Nice background. Perhaps Wilbur needs the focus instead of the ball, but I'm not sure about that.

lol how many Pez do you have? This one looks like Wilbur is about to get beaned in the face (and he knows it too). Cute set-up!

It is a great shot. Just watch the highlights. The top of the ball loses texture due to the intense brightness. Everything else is awesome.

Almost looks like poor Wilbur is about to get creamed! I've always wanted to try this type of shot, you pulled it off pretty well.

It is funny how things work out. This photo shoot took place at one of my son's soccer games. Every time he was subbed out to the bench, I would wonder around placing the ball and the Pez in different positions and different lengths apart. I tried a bunch of apertures and even focused on Wilbur for a while and let the foreground ball be blurred. Of the 60 shots I took, over approximately a half hour of playing around, this one was the second shot taken!

great detail on the ball, and the DOF is perfect

I like how you have the 'Pez', in the background in this composition, with the focus on the baseball.

The DOF works in complete balance, with the focused areas.
