RESULTS
First - airfrogusmc - I love how sharp the golf ball is in this pic. And the concentration on the golfer's face. Nicely done.
Second - philk54 - Priceless image. He certainly is having a ball.
Third - OhLook - I loved this shot the instant I saw it. Great composition and mood.
These were all great entries and there is the thinnest of margins between them. Thanks for the great showing.
