And I adore the photo! I'm so bummed that the voters dismissed this with a 4.99 score! Incredulous! I really love the expanse of it, how the way the players give scale to that huge field and the city stuff in the background. I even love the almost silhouette look of the players. To me, it enhances the entire scene of the photo.

Once again. . .I see how badly I suck at being on the same wavelength as the voters here :(

Congratulations on an awesome. . .ridiculously underrated photo!!!

Wow! I am amazed that this didn't score higher than 5.1! To me, it's appealing, interesting, VERY much meets the challenge and technically awesome! Just confirms to me once again how much I suck at knowing what these crazy voters are going to like! I just love this photo! Love it!

Yikes! what a great capture of these birds almost colliding! I love great duck photos! This is awesome. I sure would have picked it to have scored higher (MUCH HIGHER) than 5.2!
