Happy looking 'too! I have one that I call "Snappy," a lesser sulphur crested.

nice enough image for a travelogue, but not one that would readily jump out at me for a best of challenge.

Way to go, Al! Congrats on a personal best. I do know how much work goes into shots like this. Worth the effort probably. I think a few simple improvements could have pushed this into the top ten: turn the player & racket more toward the camera and slightly deeper DoF.

Comment by adeldegan:
Thank you all for the wonderful comments. I felt that the DOF was a tad shallow myself, but unfortunately I made my set a bit to small to work with so I had to be in tight. Also, I wanted to show the racquet more but I didn't want to show the wire that the ball was glued to more. Oh well, I learned a lot from this challenge and your comments. My best score yet, so thanks.

Very clever! Wish I could see a little more of the racquet, but otherwise nicely executed! 9
