Hi Lucas,

Good POV, shows the moment that the front player is indicating tactics with her hands behind her back.

Well done,

fara

Apart from the obvious interest this sport seems to have for the male of the species this is a really good ..and somewhat unusual sports photograph.....great to catch the moment of the signal and the informality of the woman holding the ball with just her legs. Very nicely tight framed shot.

best wishes Kev

Hi Lucas, A superb sporting photo, the great composition & POV, however the way the front player is holding her hands adds action & this gives a perfect finish to a very good shot, kind regards Wilson.

Hi Lucas
A perfect illustration of why there are more cameras at beach volleyball games than any other sport.
Nicely done.

É preciso ser ousado para uma fotografia destas mas, alguém o teria de fazer. A composição está excelente e mostra um momento importante antes do lançamento da bola, que por acaso até está muito bem colocada. A profundidade de campo na primeira rapariga está excelente com um bom foco deste o plano do Speedo até ao cabelo. A única coisa de que não gosto é a moldura que escolheste. Pessoalmente, teria feito uma a branco, a toda a volta.

Olá Lucas..
que jogo?
que volei de praia?
que sinais coma as mãos da primeira jogadora?
que bolas nas pernas?
só percebi que era um jogo de volei de praia depois de ler os outros comentarios :)))) e depois de muito tempo olhando sua foto...
brincadeirinha.. :)
depois de tudo isso, a foto é muito boa, inusitada; agora sem malícia, com uma exelente bun...quero dizer POV.
tecnicamente perfeita...
parabens,
mande outra depois do ponto..
Tayon

Oi Lucas!
Excelente POV! Além da beleza indiscutível do corpo esculpido dessa jogadora, você ainda capturou o momento do jogo, com a dupla indicando a jogada, o que é muito legal. A qualidade da foto é 10! Uma imagem gostosa...
abraço,
Zeca

what is best in the pic u know, the unusual angle and perspective of a sports photo. great.

Hello Lucas

He he, excellent angle for a shot!
Reminds me of this great summer with the beach volleyball world tour visiting Stavanger, Norway.
To tell the truth, the steats just behind the players are the first to the sold out!
Very nice full focus on the main..errr...target.
The DOV works well to give the impression of distance and ayt the same time make it all clearly visible.
Thank you for sharing.

Hi Lucas,

Great capture. The focus on the first woman with the other one blurred is good. The way you capured the sign is even better. I'm not so crazy about your frame.....but that's just a matter of taste.

:) Tina

Aha, a photo with a lot of views, but as is always the case, not as many points or comments! ;)

Well your POV is certainly well chosen, and I think the focus & depth of field is another good point, the temptation would be to stop down to something like f/11 and keep more of the image sharp, but here the mind is forced to concentrate on the first girl. As it is, she dominates the image.

Hi Lucas,

female beach volleyball is probably the only sport i can watch on TV and never get bored of it...if not the only thing i can follow on TV at all...perfect framing which has the taste of hot summer written over it...cheers, arturo
