This is where my husband comes up and blows on it! :) Great picture, it makes me lean forward, trying to make it fall in!

Be the ball. Nice composition. 6

Cute stock shot. A lower angle on the ball would really improve this shot.

Well, if I am to be truthfull this is a litle tedious as a visual picture, but at least you have applied the challenge description to your shot, which is more than can be said for most of the entries.

nice shot
04/29/2005 06:33:49 PM
If this was a Tiger Wood putt, it would've fallen in. :-)

Looks like a golfers nightmare to me! Good photo, creative idea :)

Creative concept and excellent entry for this challenge.

This seems to have a color cast to me.
04/29/2005 03:11:21 AM
good idea, but why bluish cast on the ball and the cup?

Very good approach to this challenge. I believe you meet the challenge with the details given. The ball is what I am considering as the subject and it does have power over the picture. If I had to pick a little, the top of ball has blown highlights and I think it would of looked better with a lower POV so not as much of the white inside the cup would be showing. The white in the cup comes very close to competing with the ball. Still with that said one of the best I have seen yet. 7

Nice shot. Too bad the grass wasn't completely green, hard given the time of year.
04/28/2005 05:01:58 PM
I was thinking someone was going to use a golfball. But I am glad to see it near the hole and not on a tee. Nice scale to everything and I gave it a 7.

Good idea and well taken.8

Creative. Clear. I like the DOF.
04/28/2005 11:12:58 AM
I really like this photo. Makes a nice addition to the challenge.
04/27/2005 07:00:51 PM
perfect for the challenge
04/27/2005 01:13:43 PM
im not exactly sure whats off here. The top half of the ball has blown highlights. The white balance is off also. The bottom of the ball + the cup have a blue/purple hint to them, making me think you left the white balance set to Flurescant (sp)

Good idea and nice execution.

A difficult image to comment on really, it has simplicity and is minimal, but the elegance I associate with minimalism is lacking
04/27/2005 06:09:10 AM
So real, it felt I was there
04/27/2005 03:16:15 AM
As an avid golfer, I can really understand this picture! Very appropriate for this challenge. Sharp, detailed. Nice clean processing.

Good perspective. Photo tells a story. Nice colour. All the elements of a good photo! Ball seems to have a bit of purple hue to it, that's all I would fix.

Love the depth you acheived and point of focus is right on. Nice example of Minimalism as I understand it. IMO, the blue/magenta cup and ball contradict the lush green grass. Adjusting the colors to natural tones would make this a stronger image, again IMO
