saw the shadow on the driveway, placed the basketball and fired off a few shots.

the de-sat is pretty natural. I removed a little blue, but not much.

I didn't vote in this challenge but I did want to say that I think this is a very clever shot.

I gave this a 5. I probably would've voted it lower if it hadn't have been a slight departure from the train that many others were riding. I liked that it was conceptual, but honestly, I think my vote on yours was decreased by the order it was voted upon. I was very tired of this same scene. I liked the composition and the concept and the processing was decent... I was just... sick of seeing the same permutations of elements. Same thing happened to me for the whole softball/baseball + glove. Boy that got old fast.

I gave this a 10. Should have been a ribbon winner in my opinion.

Oh I like this so much. The shadow play as the hoop's circle encases the ball on the ground. Well done. 10

Beautiful composition.. haven't gone through the rest of the pictures, but this definitely stands out in the thumbnails! 10

returning back to say, after seeing all the thumbnails I will be surprised if I don't see this on the front page!

Terrific "innuendo" with the shadow. Love the colors and the processing
