Daria Gavrilova

Russian Daria Gavrilova in action at the Juniors Championship ~

Wimbledon 2009.

He Daria, I think it is a fine shot, but the very tight cropping is for my perception in conflict with the great action feeling you catched. If you cropped out the ball ... bring him back, he doesn't seem the be far away looking at her eyes perfectly focussed on the ball. Otherwhise, next time shoot it horisontaly, it wil open more options for composition.

All this isn't ment as critique, because it's a fine shot deserving more attention. But the lack of response indicates most people miss something here.

Thanks Piet for your comment! This was amongst the very early shots on the very first time shooting 'live tennis', so I was very much learning and adapting throughout the day. I have (or will have) some more 'action shots' in a 'Wimbledon' folder in my portfolio. Roll on Wimbledon 2010. I shall be much more prepared!

great action photo, very clear!
