Strong compostion, beautifully photographed with crisp focus.. your choice of duotone color was perfect... for me, I would rather not see the text at all.. just the beautiful texture of the ball (which you rendered perfectly) I really appreciate how you contrasted the old baseball with the new.... good job!

Very nicely captured. The textures are amazing such are the tonal qualities throughout.

little grainy; seems like it might have too much contrast to it but I do love the emphasis on the texture - 6

Wondeful texture and tone in this image. Good use of lighting to highlight without having to dodge/burn. Well done.

I like the contrast. I don't like the words on the baseball - I would have liked it much more if it simply the old next to the new. The 'Major League Baseball' makes me think about all the overpaid, pretentious nitwits marring the sport.
