Taken from the nose bleed section, this shot is nearly a 100% crop in order to get the near version I wanted to see.
PP included levels, Shadow & Highlights, with the Highlights brought way up, Noise reduction - several times, and USM. Slight reduction in size and save for web.
Some masking on the jersey to retain detail.
BTW - The Jazz won!
I have no idea how this will be received. The action is caught at the right moment. It's a pro game which is hard to photograph. The processing is rather heavy in the noise reduction but has an interesting look. I think the composition works. I can see this scoring anything from the mid 5's to mid 6's. At least it's a shot that's not seen often.
