Like how his face and expression are so clear even though there's still clear motion. Very emotive.

Awesome "electric" colors! And with all this color and other business I am still drawn to his face...nicely composed.

Unbelievable timing.
I am especially impressed at how you setup the exposure to make the shot.
Congrats on your second ribbon Larus.

My entry was also from this same game, and I can vouch for Larus and Andri that they were indeed both taking pictures side by side at the game - I was there with them for the first half and at the other end of the field for the second half, when these photographs were shot.

All in all, I think there were 6 if not 7 DPC'ers at the game - at least. The reason is probably that we don´t have that many sport events here in Iceland during the timeframe of a week, except for football. This match was by far the most prestigious one during that week as the two teams are the two largest/most successful teams in Reykjavik, the capital city(and only city I might add ;).

p.s: Til hamingju með borðann kvikindið þitt ;)

To answer Andy, Larus and I did indeed go to the same soccer match and we stood right by each other when we took those two, admittedly, similar shots.
It might seem strange that we submit such similar shots even though we went to the same game but I can assure you that this was not planned on our behalf as Larus and I did not know of each other submissions until after the voting had started. Quite a coincidence, eh?
In addition, I might mention that it should be obvious to most people that my picture and Larus's have a quite different look to them (colour etc.) and the background is very different which, to me at least, shows that they were taken from different vantage points and were processed with different methods. Perhaps it's moot to explain this as the site council will undoubtedly see when they receive the original files that these two shots were taken on two different cameras.

(As an aside a similar thing happened to me and another photographer in the 'Abandoned' challenge where the entries in the 3rd and 4th place were of the same house.)

I could also mention that Larus and I were not the only ones to submit photographs from this game as Sjonni and hrutsen also submitted a picture from this exact match.
And to boot Arnit, Siggi and skarason also all submitted photographs from the same game.

Anyway, congratulations for your red ribbon, Larus!!

I just wanna say that this shot and the number 4, all we need is the ball, by Andri, must be disqualified because they are made by the same author: you can easly see that they are the same teams and the same players in the same city in the same day.

Great shot but not correct
