 This photo gives the illusion of Distance, looking as if the player left his helmet behind and is still running 10 or 15 yards ahead. The helmet I used is a Riddell minature replica. It is about the same height as the figure itself. I placed the figure one foot away and snapped the shot through the facemask of the helmet that was also used to give the photo sort of a bordered look. This photo is in tribute to Curtis Martin the 2005 NFL rushing champ. GO JETS 2006!

Straighten the horizon, and center the player inside the helmet frame and you've got yourself a great shot.
