Hi Kumar --

Excellent light and dust effect on a grassless football ground. Nice action shot with one is going for attack and one calling for the ball. Though the haze due to the dust we can make out the indecision (who to pass) of the player with the ball. Lovely pic...

Just a bit tilted towards right and can be fixed easily...

Thanks for sharing

Cheers

Hi Kumar,
I kinda like the warm atmosphere here. The low light thru the dust gives a great effect.
Though, I regret that those people are frozen in there movement, which unfortunately are not all elegant (very hard to get 10 people have nice posture for a shot, especially when they are not focused on the pic but on the game! ;-)
Besides, regarding the composition there is something that disturbs me. Maybe you could straighten the horizon or let some space around the players. I don't know. But still, lovely golden light. And nice feeling.
Cheers,
Pris.

Very dynamic picture, with all the dust covering the players.
You captured the spirit of the game perfectly.
The light is also perfect

Hi Kumar,
football is universal. In each village on the earth, in slums of South America, Asia, Africa... children and young people play football. No need green lawn and boots with studs, just a field, a ball and some friends.
Good POV with the light of the sunset, playing with the dust.
