Description

This was taken on the same day as "I'll be there". It was a difficult shot to make, since I had to be completely still directly after shooting with the cue as hard as I can, because of the long shutterspeed required for the motion trails of the balls. I took us 3 shots but this one worked out ok I think.

I like to play pool billard from time to time. This is a portait picture of me (some people think a mugshot is a portrait, but that's not entirely true) playing pool. Shot was made and developed by my ex girlfriend, concept by me.

Nice shot. I Like the effect on the balls. I reckon a more symetrical shot would work well too...but that is probably too obvious!

Oh man where do I start....the game I love......the silence in your figuere i love because of the contrast with the action of the balls.... the hall/passage behind it gives it a youth sentimentall feeling....hell...7/7 vote from me.....I want more lair.....

Hehe thanks all...

I like it better with these angles. I am far from symmetrical as a person. I am rather dynamic (although I can be "in your face"

nice crits everyone.

Nice movement on the balls, nice light. I don't feel an atmosphere on this one, but there's no need to, so that doesn't matter.
7/7 ofcourse from me
