What I like about this photo is the blunt, "in your face" kind of color, and dumb composition. I know you guys are scratching your head for that, but that's really what made me submit it :)

Its a nice image but the flag was always a nice image. I agree with previous comments about he need to be a bit more creative with this flag. it has a lot of potential.

Thanks Uncle Rod for the comments & suggestions.

Bugger, have just read that the shirt is a flag:-(

Nice clear & colourful shot amm, well done, but in shots like this the credit should go to the designer of the shirt. If you're going to re-shoot have a play with the shirt to make it a bit more interesting & your own creation. Such as throwing it down on the grass where the way it falls can make a nice composition. This can also suggest that the shirt was thrown down just after the game. If you can find a football field nearby then you can also use the white sidelines etc in your composition. You will have this shot as a backup if nothing else works. Have fun mate:-)

Btw, this is a flag, so wrinkles & uneven surfaces (hence shadows) are expected.

You already suggested a re-shoot. Will try that. Thanks for the comment.

The shadows on the right are there because of limitation of space where I was shooting at. Will try to re-shoot it if you don't like it, just let me know.

over all this is very good but the shadows to the right are a bit distracting. can this be re-shot or is there an artistic/technical reason for it being there? dorys

No controversy here! I like the composition and color of this image! Shu

Hope there won't be a controversy about what is "football" :)
