Aperture: F/5.6

This was definitively a snap shot. I took it at 300mm with maximum aperture and it still was about two full stops underexposed. So it needed quite a lot of processing to make it acceptable. The hard light and the basic editing rules did not help!!!

To those unfamiliar with boules bugger could be seen in the window :) Nice shot, I'd give a bit more space to the right of the player and some more on top.

Despite the title, and a slight sense of this being overly blue in the colour temperature stakes, I really like the moment, your framing, and the dynamic. This is being so often missed in this challenge, which seems to be reverting to a simple portrait collection - the preciousness of the moment, the action, rather than the simple page of the face.

I don't usually like comments or give them, but since candids are near and dear to my heart, I have decided to comment on every photo in this challenge.

Cute title, but not the best candid. Mans face is out of focus, however does show some emotion. A 4 vote from me.
