Thanks for the comments.
I made this grayscale because the colors were so far off due to the bad/mixed lighting in the pool hall, and the limitations of my ten year-old P&S Olympus camera, working in Auto mode (see below).
Resized original: 
It is (pleasantly) shocking to have gotten it so "nice and sharp" with a 1/20-second handheld exposure! :-)
By the time I decided I was going to use this for my entry, it was too late to try and edit the colors individually, or to edit out the spots on the tabletop. However, I might not have done that anyway, since, with so many spots, it would be cutting it close to the line regarding removal of "distracting" elements ... |

| Nice and sharp. I'm wondering why not do it in color? |

| i like that i recognized that the 13 was one of the 13 balls. I'm not so sure i like vibrant colors forced into black and white, though someone else black and whited their strawberries, so perhaps I don't know what I'm talking about. |

| Would have been nice to have seen the colours in this shot. Also, you could have removed the spots as it is an advanced editing challenge. |
