Ha! I thought that ball looked glued on! :-) Still, I can't imagine why this photo didn't place higher. I had picked it for a ribbon, but that's not the firt time I've been wrong. Really great idea - hope to see lots more just like it in future contests. |

Hey, 5.6 isn't bad! The composition and angle are great. I think it would have placed higher with some motion :) You might want to try it as an experiment.
Good luck... |

Haha, I didn't realize the ball was glued! Had me fooled. I commented during the challenge that the bat and ball were laid over a pain of glass. Probably would have been easier that way? Again, nice shot! |

Hey, thanks everyone for your comments during the challenge. I had high hopes for this one, but I guess hot glue wasn't such a good idea after all! :o) LOL |

Would have liked the bat to be blurred from swing motion. |

Very creative point of view. The detail, composition, and DOF are excellent and the idea overall is simply brilliant. I'm assuming the bat and ball were laid over a pain of glass? One thing that would be neat (outside of the challange) would be to crop the ball in Pshop and create 2-3 layers overlapping and each other. Set the layers' opacity and this would give the ball the illusion of motion blur. Anyways, just a thought :) .... Hope you do well and I give this photo a 9 |

I just love this image. Great effect to remove the batter from the gameplay, and I love the perspective. |

Very good... would have been neat to get some some action blur on the ball or the bat... i can only make an assumption on how you got the shot |

Did you use glue or gum on that ball? |

Was the ball or bat in motion on this shot? If so, this is an amazing photo. I am very impressed. Incredible focus... the "blurry" background actually makes the shot even more impactful, too! |

Ball glued to bat?? I like your idea here - I think a plainer bat (wood) would have worked better - less distraction from your excellent composition |

I think a good wooden bat (sorry I'm a purist) would have been a better choice here. The green color is very distracting as is the graphic lettering. Great idea and nicely shot. |

Cool shot and I like the metallic green. I know it has been validated as authentic, but it still appears a bit disjointed or "pasted in" (which I realize it isn't -- it just makes it look somewhat flat to my eyes). |

I realize this is supposed to look like the bat is hitting the ball, but it looks like it's glued onto the bat and that's a bit distracting. I like the angle of the shot though and I'm glad you chose a bat with rich colours - although the light reflecting into the bat is a bit harsh. Good composition overall though 6 |

I know it is personal but I would have liked this shot better with a wooden bat, the brightly colored aluminum bat dominates the image without contributing much. Great idea, well executed, top ten |

Really great photo. Amazing that you were able to freeze the action with so much color and clarity. Looks like you glued the ball to the bat. ;-) Great job! |

Cool deal for a photo. Did you glue the ball to the bat or something? I would like to see a stop motion of this shot, with a little motion blur and stuff... good job. |
