Lets celebrate my victory

Nice rich lighting, great still life, but sadly DNMC for me, as I fail to see any sporting venue, or even the suggestion of one.

Love the lighting and the rich hues. This is a subtle shot that doesn't hit with a "WOW" in the typical 2-second-view-per-vote but has much to offer those who take longer and SEE.

Very striking contrasts and effective use of shallow DOF.

'Til Next Sunday

I have a thing for repeating patterns, personally :) The reflections off the top of the distant chairs reminds me of waves. This does have major lighting problems, and if you'd like to post it in a thread after the challenge I'm sure those with more skill than I could give you some very helpful advice. :)

Effective use of DOF and of colour to lead the eye through the shot.

Echoes Of Today's Chant Still Linger O -- H -- I -- O

My eye first is grabbed by the "O" but then moves to the top, drawn by the light, and travels slowly down to the gate, where I find myself carried through, where I imagine I would find the expanse of stadium opening before me. It's a shot that looks good at first glance but is so much better when time is taken to absorb and feel all the nuances.

The garbage is what completes this shot :)

Seat Pattern

This is my only 9. The colour, lighting, choice of angle and crop all work together to give beauty and interest beyond only how the seat feels under our butts while we concentrate on the game.

... You Get Overtime

But if it's into overtime, the game isn't over and players and people haven't gone home yet, have they? It's a cool shot otherwise....

I like the contrasts of colour and line in this. I think I'd have cropped out the sky, myself.
