Hi David,
Great portrait of the basketball girl. It's visible on her shirt she took the game seriously. :) Nice exposure and timing, wonderful capture. Tfs the image and the informative note.

Great work David, thoroughly clear and crisp with excellent light and detail, good DOF and bokeh.

Perhaps a slight crop on the right to get rid of that awkward elbow angle and cut-off forearm, but the shot overall works very well. Great work!

Hi David,

She really is into her game, she worked up quite a sweat. I think it is a lovely shot - the look in her eyes, the DOF, the hair blowing in her face, but she does not care, she is keeping her eyes on the ball.

Great job!

Hi David
Good shot. You have caught the moment even the sweat under her arm pits indicating the previous action. Now the anticipation of more action. Well Done.

Hello David,

Wonderful concentration and, as you say, anticipation! Usually the eyes work so well on their own in this kind of a shot but here, the skew of the mouth and the dishevelled hair play very important parts also.

I don't agree about the crop of the elbow. I think that helps to indicate her proposed direction.

Well done!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hello David,
Photo and title are one. ;0) Perfect capture, timing and title.
Nice technique and use of the tools to capture a stunning image. The hair, her eyes, the tension in her stance all captured perfectly.
Very well done,

David you have truly captured what you intended in this shot.
Not only her expression, but all the other elemnts, the aspect of being on the move, slight glistening of the skin from sweating.
As always you provide great notes.
