I think this is a well composed and delivered shot. I think where this one misses out a bit in the deep DOF is no subject really close to us. The cricket players, the trees and the balloon are all far away from the camera. Altering the composition by having something like a cricket bat on the ground close to the camera in the foreground, the players behind, and the balloow way out (all in sharp focus) would probably have garnered you a ribbon.
mqnaufal, the ground is at Frensham in Surrey (south west of London). We were blessed with a very warm if hazy and humid mid-September afternoon. Unfortunately, we lost this game, got relegated and our opponents, Frensham, won the league so quite an eventful afternoon!
