Nice idea, but I'm not so sure the 'focus' is actually missed. Most action on a pool table involves the cue ball, and that seems to be the in-focus subject IMO. |

Hmmm, first off you mention this is the only good one - could you provide F-stop, Iso, Y/N Flash....just so we can give suggestions on what settings you could try sometime in the future if you utilize this location for another challenge;-)
Strengths: Low angle - you really get us in there. Colors are good and natural looking - no oversaturation. You have some good detail on the corner pocket and the 15 ball.
Weakness: The composition is O.K. As someone who has played pool, I am a little lost on why we are looking at something other than the cue ball when 'we' the player are eyeballing it to sink the 15 ball. Lots of noise - but that can easily be cleaned up with a good denoise program. There is another element that is missing here when it should be part of the composition: the cue stick...I think that is something that could really help srengthen the composition and if composed right add some interesting leading lines. |

Background might be a bit distracting.. but thats just my opinion... But the thought is really cool. Maybe just a simple background would give the eye no distractions to really look at the ball way down on the other side of the table. Cool idea. |
