1 Alienbee b800 off the wall/ceiling behind me triggered via PW.

shot w/ 1d, 70-200 + 1.4x.

I believe the EXIF is still on it.

DUDE, this rocks. This is awesome, look at that expression, the teeth. I can't find anything bad in this image.

I agree....awsome shot.....

[Gyro]

This is so awesome! I love how you really captured the feel of wrestling. The kids barred teeth really make this photo for me.

The key to me on the effectiveness of this image is the square crop. By doing it this way you pared your image down to only the essentials and drew the focus right where it needed to be. Nice Brent.

Brent,

Along with the "story" this picture tells (determination ect), I like the photo because it is crisp and clear. I like that the wrestlers are in focus and clear. i like that there are almost no shadows or highlights. The arm on the mat is sharp. It can be seen and is clearly different than the mat. it does not blur and blend. The eyes are clear and visible.

The technical aspect is great as always. Good job.

[JBPhoto]

I second that, and add an "outstanding". Great capture Brent.

[JETA]

Amazing. YOu need to add this one to your portfolio.

[Homer]

Great shot, love the expression. What intensity.

thanks for the comments everyone. The only thing that bothers me about this image is the noise in the left background, but that should be a fairly simple correction since it's primarily on the background.
