Thank you for all the comments on my first submission. This photo was not taken with the idea to submit it in any challenge, and it had to be taken in quite a rush as the player did not really care much to pose, hence the "snapshot" feel of the photo.
When I looked at the challenge "from the gound up" I felt that this photo may qualify for the challenge because the idea is to get the ball from the ground up and over the cross bar.
Again, thanks for all the comments! |

(I'm making an attempt to explain why I give any photo 3 or less. Obviously I won't like these photos, but DPC is a place to learn a) about what works in this environment and b) about what other individuals think. Please don't be despondant just because I don't like your shot. Rather than that, if your entry scored low, please try and understand one commentor's reasons.)
Aside from the snapshot feeling here, the main reason I scored low was because I don't feel you met the challenge. The camera angle is obviously higher than the players - not exactly 'from the ground up'. Other little quibbles - the standing guy really detracts from the action. There's no action. I know that your title talks of a static position, but sports shots work better when there's action. If you had waited until they actually kicked, the effect would have been much more dramatic. |

Interesting take on the challenge description. I find the banner/sign in the foreground distracts from the overall shot for me. Good concept though. |

No feeling of looking up. |
