interesting shot love the rain / snow . but I think I prefer a much tighter crop. three heads and the ball
would love to know the story behind this one
:-)

Wings The crop was a toss up. It's simple. It's about wanting to win badly. I don't care about peak action. I figure any yoyo can shoot that. I like to do something else. Wow its right there in front of you. :)) Know the player and the moment becomes clear.. As always your friend.

Willem de Vlaming What I like is the writing on the ball, it gives it an extra twist. Playing for something bigger in the old Maya or Inca tradition

Wings it has certainly got drama but its funny why did you crop off the boot if I took an image with such an oversight it would get consigned to the trash . Seems I need to rethink my quality control system!

Wings Gerard Its a 500mm lens they just happen to be in close. If I shoot I'm all in it. screw the foot. the ball and above is what this shot is a bout. Well thanks for enjoying it. Just imagine me running backwards to make the shot. Hmm I'd fall on my ass and shoot a bird.. Hmm not a bad idea.

the timing is perfect wings...!!! madridistas

Wings It's a mad shot. In stead of being safe. I wanted to do what others don't do. I wanted to get in it so you feel something. Peak shot form sucks for me. Sports is really about the player and his story. I'm honored you get it. When we brake the mold , go out on the edge to be one with the moment. Greatness happens. and trends fall around ones ankles like shorts at te crapper :)))))
