Setup (wish I had taken a photo of it):
Large white shampoo bottle - cut both ends off
Paper plate with a hole in the center over the top of the shampoo tube
Cut grass out of the lawn, and taylored it around the opening
Made the hubby hold it up with the golf ball in place while I got under it and shot the photo

25th isn't high enough for this! I didn't see it, but a 9 in my book anyday! A little diffusion to take the burned out white off the top of the ball would make it a 10.
Doesn't matter now.
What does matter is you shot a VERY creative shot - excellent interpretation of the challenge. My hats off to you!
A creative and well executed shot. (I'm thinking your camera isn't really in an actually golf hole.) The touch of grass around the edge is a great detail. 8
Ha!! Very clever! As a golfer I find this hillarious - but my shots like to just sit on the edge instead of actually going in (ha ha). One critique - the grass looks too real to be the actual grass on the green by a real hole
Heheh nice. A little superglue holding the ball further over the edge would really have nailed the effect of it dropping into the hole. Nontheless, clever shot.
