 Took the photo on the practice-chipping green on the golf course where I work.
I used a bit of adhesive to keep the ball on the club, and you can see a tiny bit of it behind the ball.
But since it´s Basic editing, I couldn't remove it afterwards.
There is very little editing in Lightroom.

This is really good! Brilliantly creative and very much deserving of top honors. Congratulations!

Haha, my mistake, I used Canon 50mm f/1.8, not the Tamron :)

Clever,great idea and great imagination. Maybe if you had the Titleist logo showing it would have made a great add. "Make a shot with Titleist from anywhere"

excellent concept

incidentally, how did you manage to do the shot at f/1.8 on the Tammy 17-50? :)

Things to do when making a set-up shot----see the above.

Focus is spot on.

Super clever and well executed! Congrats.

Interesting idea and great realization. I am puzzled by the exif data Tamron 17-50 f/2.8 but aperture used f/1.8? Is this just a typo?
 06/30/2010 11:01:26 AM
also in this case my nine was really well deserved... a great great shot!

That's one heckuva lie. But at least it's a straight putt. Pretty good chance of making it. :-) Congrats on the ribbon!
