Good idea. However, in my opinion, photography is more than capture and post-processing. I don't like the shoes and socks. T-shirt should be more graphic for this sort of thing.

Very nice indeed! Very good post processing and perfectly captured. Not like most portraits and that's what attracts me to it.

This being a set up, I would have asked one of the two players to dress in a different uniform and helmet for added effect. That being said, I think it's a very good idea and nicely executed.

Nice idea, but too much photoshopping going on for my taste.

I really like your approach! It's fresh, youthful, out of the box.

Like I said earlier, nice 3d trick - I will probably use this as an example for my youngster to emulate - think outside the box.

Thanks for all the comments! I was going for ambivalence with this photo, and I got the mixed feelings. Also, I didn't expect to be among the first 10 with this. I'm gobsmacked really.

To get an idea what I was photographing go to //www.flickr.com/photos/carlosferrer/sets/72057594135255515 on my Flickr.

The how-to was easy, I bent really low to get the background nicely clean. Alas, the burning was unavoidable, since I had only basic equipment and was on a schedule (model, rain). Even the compensation in Lightroom didn't change that.

P.s. Will anyone PM me on how to change my "Photographers Comments"? Tks.
P.p.s. Thanks for the tips, something's not right on my side, don't see the mentioned "edit" possiblility in the Photo Description ... a, well.
