Arrow Time to Reflect (with a dual meaning)

One of my favorite shots I got out of shooting paintball. Hope you all like it too

Reflection

Exposure: 0.003 sec (1/320)
Aperture: f/4.0
Focal Length: 137 mm
Exposure: 0.00
ISO Speed: 400

And another that I thought fit the "reflection" theme in a different way

Paintball World Cup 2009 _ 005

Exposure: 0.002 sec (1/500)
Aperture: f/4.0
Focal Length: 300 mm
Exposure: 0.00
ISO Speed: 200

Great shot, Shutternut! I don't know why no one's commented yet. Very cool cap in the first! Kind of reminds me of the Wii game from Shaun White! Maybe they should have you shoot their Paintball cover!! Well done!

I commented on that second one at your Flickr account. Must have missed the first one!

Like I said on Flickr, action shots are great but these type of shots give perspective. That first one is fantastic!! Love it!!!

Exclamation What it sounds like to shoot/play paintball!

Thought I'd just post this here instead of starting a new thread. These paintball shots I've shared have all come from the World Cup where FAU played. I did an audio slideshow my editor's just posted to the newspaper's site now in case any of you want to hear what it'd be like to shoot or play some paintball fun stuff!
