A pivotal moment.

This was photographed tonight.

It’s another colour image taken with my undisclosed lens (well, eight of you now know which lens I’m using — I’m going down the list of people who donated to my site and revealing its identity as my personal thank you).

As you can see, the rendering — even wide open — is impressive.

A pivotal moment

 

Homage to HCB.

I was thinking of Henri Cartier-Bresson’s famous shot when I took this.

(his image is more interesting — for many reasons)

On a related note, I’ve gone back and edited all my soccer-related images and added the category The Beautiful Game to each one, so that I no longer have to type “The Beautiful Game” in the title or in the post.
