Tough looking old left-handed driver. Good action shot. JEM

Why ARE there so few left-handed golfers? I think the slightest bit less glare on the ball would help, but good job keeping the writing and the logo on the club very clear.

That looks like some pretty old golf gear. Your buddies must give you a hard time :) I'm a golfer and my goal is to golf every day when I retire (in approximately 30 years) so I'll give you a 10. Oh yeah, the shot is technically sound too. jacko.

Cool shot, one of my favorites this week. Might have worked better with a lighter background. DPz

Comment by Bullwinkle:
The obvious elements that power this image for me are the yellow plus golden combo, the tiger logo, the perfect mix of club blur and stillness, the feel of the wood, the very graphic composition of just a few elements. Some things that I would have done different personally (imho) are a different background, less intense ball highlight and a hint more tee. But those are minor hagglings of an otherwise terrific shot...8 bullwinkle

challenge not met ... in my opinion (and i know that that's likely not the same as yours, as you obviously think your photo matches the challenge, but i have to vote according to my own interpretation, sorry. that out of the way, i did want to give you my comments on your photo anyway, because i think it is a really nice shot. i've tried things with food coloring but haven't had such nice results. i think you managed to get them just streaky and mixed enough without them all getting mixed into one. you can see all sorts of shapes and figures in it when you look at it long enough :) the black frame works well (so does the title for that matter), but i think i would make the frame a little thinner. was there any way of making the background more evenly white? it's great on the right, not quite as good on the left (this is nitpicky, btw). anyway. i like the shot :)

Ye olde pull it backwards movement trick is becoming a bit overused, white border is a bit pointless and makes the active picture area smaller.

This is really nice, but I think the thick black border is a bit overbearing. Perhaps a bit more white space around the ink swirls would help to increase their impact as well. Good idea though, I love all the colour and turbulance.

aahhhhhh I am torn .. I like the picture a lot ... but I keep seeing somebody mixing the colors in water or something to get that .. I cannot get the 'man' our of it in my head ... So I am giving it a 7 but would probably have give it momre in an other challenge. Very nice 'art' painting/photography. Lionel
