I took the inspiration for this from a similar shot I saw on Flickr.

The green background is actually a green polo shirt I dug out of my cupboard and hung behind the ball.

Very little editing done, cloned out some sensor dust spots, slight increase in saturation, straightened, cropped, resize, SFW.

A good entry into the challange demonstrating the variable natureof texture. A little technical flaw with the white bloom that is right on the edge of being overdone. A good effort.

very well done. Not necessarily one of my faves in the challenge but it was well lit and well shot. There are just some other shots I like more. Will re-visit after going through all of them. Only commenting for now. No score yet. Temporary rating of 5 for sorting purposes only. Bump to 6

Really neat shot. I love the fact that your background is well out of focus but not so much as to make it just about a solid color. Very sharp shot of the ball.
