I'm sorry, but I can't really see where it fits the challenge - the aircraft is too well defined, and only the propellor seems to be the only (incidental) source of MB. If it were cloudy, or there was some sort of skyline visible, I'm sure it would have worked better. But a clear blue sky, ironically, has hampered your image.

This image seems a little soft, almost like you had a soft focus filter on it... Nice stop action of the ball and bat. I'd love to know how far away you were and what equipment you used for this one.

Looks like you got a little happy w/the Gaussian Blur.

Good capture, and a fine layout for a magazine. The ball and foreground have an overprocessed look to them, though.

You were playing third? Right?! Very nice. One of my favorites so far.

Nice capture. I know I kep giving the same comment, but great DOF. Awesome timing too to have the ball in the shot. Photo would have looked kind of goofy without it. I like the crop with the grass and soil in the foreground.

Great timing, great shot, and the blurred out audience is a perfect place to put the magazine logo and type.
