The Slam Dunk

I like the emotions here. Comments welcomed.

I love this shot. The only thing I'm a little conflicted about is the background. I like the way his arms frame the banner but that makes me want to see it more clearly. But, if you add flash to get greater DOF, it'll be darker. Failing that, I guess I'd like to see less DOF, making the banner a little more abstract.

 

But that's really a nit. Great timing. The ball is in a perfect spot, the player's expression is great.

 

Well done.

In shooting basketball, flash is not allowed in most arenas. The background is the upper deck of the auditorium, thus the seats...and I'm shooting from a position on the floor. I hope that helps.

Great shot,this is very,very difficult!!!!!!You stop the ball in perfect position to enhance athletic mood!!!!!
