Greetings from the Critique Club :)

Hi Shelley...

This is a nice image of Americana :) I also like the way you composed this image with the curve of the baseball threading and the 'base' of the glove along the bottom... I think it's also a good thing that you did not use a new baseball... the dirty ball gives a good sense of 'being there' rather than looking like an advertisement photo...

Excellent work :)

I like the composition and coloration. The multiple shadows are a bit distracting.

Such a nice vingette. The used ball adds character - too bad the glove is soooo new ;) I really like the composition.

Nicely composed and exposed. Great job!

I think the composition is very strong here, the tight curves of the ball seams complement the lazier curves of the yellow glove. I think lighting makes the final image look a little flat though - somehow lacking in vibrancy, if that makes sense.

I really enjoy this shot. I like that you didn't just do a super close up of the ball and included the glove as well. Very nice. I can see this hanging on the wall in a sports bar or some place like that. I also like that you didn't use a brand new ball and used a ball that looks as though it has been used a bit. Good luck and I hope you finish well.
