Trapped Tiger

[Selected Pixels]

This is over a year old but I'd be interested in comments. I'd really like to do more sports photography but haven't found time and opportunity to do so. This was shot during a practice round at Baltrusol in New Jersey.

I think it's cool that his bag is there with his name on it (and the tiger club cover is a nice touch), but it seems to overwhelm the shot. And since it's closer to the camera, it looks HUGE!

So without the bag, I'd call that a pretty sweet shot. I probably would have framed it so you can see the heads of the crowd behind him.

I love the wistful look on his face that you caught. Very nice.

Well, it's a nice shot.
I agree with googlit, but I'd like to add one thing:

I'd put the frame a little higher, so you can see the peoples heads, and so the grass at the bottom would be a bit smaller.
Then i'd frame it a bit to the left, so Tiger Woods would be a bit closer the "the third" of the image.

cool shot. I agree with Floris - either a tighter crop to get rid of the people or a framing that is up and left a bit to put him off centre and include the crowd.

But still - cool shot, it's not every day you get to photograph a living legend.

I feel the image is very grey/flat, it needs more contrast
