Shouldn't have waited til the last minute. I rushed these shots and barely found one I like. To make it worse, I thought I hid the text on the ball, since I grabbed a kids T-ball instead of baseball. Well, let's see how many of you notice that.
:)

This was combination light paint and remote flash on background.

Very interesting shot. Just about feels like I'm looking at a shot to be used in a newspaper under a headline: "such and such a player has been using steroids." The feeling shows.

Great theme, but I don't know if it would be fitness stock. Maybe news...

Not great as a stock image per se but I love the commentary. I like the idea and its executed well.

Very symbolic and delivers a very strong message. Good delivery.

Very interesting social comment and one that works well IMO
I like the composition and normally would say more contrast needed but somehow due the the message here I think the pale works well.
Only down side is the shadow but it's an 8 from me

Nice idea. I wonder what it would look like if it were on a grass field?

The shadow in the back is a little distracting. Creative idea though!

Now I'm going to have this song stuck in my head all day. Very interesting shot, I think this is a great idea for a stock photo.

Another creative image that could be an excellant Public Service Announcement. A different background might, or might not, have improved this a little. A powerful statement of an unfortunate era of baseball. Well done.
