Good skyline. Too bad antennas are in foreground.

It's an excellent basball shot. But I believe you need to be much closer to really show team sport "action."

I like the city in the backround

Nice mix of sport and scenery. I would have rotated the shot a bit to get the skyline straight.

I love the contrast between the skyline and the field. The colours in the image are beautiful. It is a little soft in that it hasn't got a great deal of contrast. It provides a great sense of space and scale.

I like composition of this picture. Balance of city (work,crowds,smog) and ball field (play,open space, fresh air) makes a statement. I would love to see this shot without the top of the building on the right cut off, and maybe with a little more of the field at the bottom. As far as this challenge however it was a bit too far back to really get to see any of the action IMO. I gave this an average score.

An absolutely beautiful photograph BUT the skyline overwhelms the sport action IMO. I wish you could of zoomed in on the action of the game. Still a good photograph.

A nice cityscape and wonderful foreground, but it feels tilted counterclockwise to me. I would have rotated it a few degrees.

I see where you're coming from with the city in the background, but I'm not keen on the overall feel of the image. It's hard to make out the foreground and because the skyline is fairly detailed the image seems quite cluttered. Good effort to go for what you did, but I think it needs a little refinement.

The grandios cityscape competes with the scene of baseball. "I want more sports action" taste is left inside. Fanatic fan types need more close-ups. Great action even from this distance. Thanks.

A very familiar vantage point for me! Cheap seats at PNC Park! :)
