It's obviously not a lined field, is this just outside of a building with a balcony, a crane, or what??

Nov 04, 2006 16:40 | #4 Thanks for the comments. Kadman wrote in post #2215856 Definitely an interesting perspective! It's obviously not a lined field, is this just outside of a building with a balcony, a crane, or what?? It's a "multi function game field" beneath a bridge. In other words, it's a plain grass field, and some dudes occasionally play soccer there. Leaning over the bridge's handrail gives this perspective.

Doing so would mean to create a totally different shot. More on my BLOG

Nov 06, 2006 17:45 | #9 Hi Superdiver. Well, I think that would get me some soccer shots with a unusual perspective. Yet, they would be soccer shots. I was going more for the surprise effect, the attempt to show you something you most probably wouldn't shoot yourself. Therefore, it makes very much sense to me to not have a ball included, and not showing s "simple" soccer scene. But I am sure someone else will pick up the idea and make sport fotos from this perspective. More on my BLOG
