At first I saw "Battling" practice but then I need glasses. She watches all the Yankee games and except for an occasional wild pitch or sinker, she should know they don't look like this... or does she need glasses too. She does see well in the viewfinder though. Lovely soft shadows. -tv

Now this I like. The golfer being such a small element in the image yet still is extremely significant and dominating making it easy to be the subject. -Doug

This looks great. I like the sense of scale the golfer gives to the shot. Also a nice contrast with all the green surrounding him.

I did nothing to make the color saturated. In fact I hardly did anything to this at all except a very slight crop, sharpening and resize. Penny Street

Shadows under the trees, but their edges are so diffuse that it's obvious this is an overcast day. I know that some colors become really saturated under such conditions, Penny, but is this a little too green? It certainly catches the eye, and the composition is very nice. I like those two dark trunks on the right.

Yes, I pulled over as I passed the park because the green stuck out at me.
There is one person I know who takes pictures while they're driving though.
Yes, I know my golf from my baseball - but I wasn't quite sure that this person did. Penny Street
