Nice shot! The perspective really gets the viewer in there. Also, all those things that a photo "needs" are missing -- sharp focus, no noise, straight lines, nice colors, etc, and I think that is exactly what makes this shot work!
Awesome shot - I love the motion you caught in the bowler. My only peeve is the Danger No Smoking sign - I find it catches my eye before the bowling ball does.
Well, seen 4 pictures of duckpin bowling now (2 here and 2 on the Wiki link). Since all four are rather grainy, has this anything to do with an old dutch grainy drink, called jenever?
Fisheye works great here and I love the processing. Not only did I learn what duckpin bowling is, but this type of shot makes me really want a fisheye.
dont you mean muckpin bowling !!! lol ..
fantastic photograph . love how the ball is suspended in the air and how it looks like it knocked all ten pins over, going right down the centre .. excellent processing .. :)
Great action motion blur shot from you here. A great image for the start of the slice of life side challenge. I like it a lot.....
Gee I just read what duckpin bowling was, and I am impressed, as with my small hands, I think I could manage this game, except, I think my wobbly legs might not stand up to the challenge.
GOOOOAAALLLLL!! Oops, I mean Strike! Actually, I had no idea what duckpin bowling is (thanks wikipedia!). :) I agree with Karen though, cool retro feel to it, neat tones.
This is such a great shot! Lovely pov/perspective, I feel like I'm sitting in a chair watching her ball go down the alley thing (hehe, you can tell I'm a bowler can't ya). Superb pp.
