My name for you is JJ aka 'SS' (super saturation in case you didn't get it) LOL!! Just kidding, my friend...I love the strong colors you use that define your personality and taste just as it does those who work mainly in monochrome:)
A fabulous composition, with lovely timing and detail!!

Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France

impressive gear !! Makes me think to the movie "Roller ball"... even if this imaginary sport was on the ice, the equipment was similar... hope that baseball is not so much violent...

Ah yes - my middle grandson is playing in a pivotal game in Vermont today - with a grandbaby on the way in SFO and the hopes that we would not jinx him by going up there - we stayed home this weekend. Seems like every game we saw the boys play this year - they lost - karma.....

Fonts from Barcelona, Spain

Excellent in every technical aspect ... light and color! The visual effect is excellent ... something like a great red-feathered bird locked in his cage ... waiting for something? Receive or send a ball! Imagine! A perfect image! Best regards, Adela
