The photographer gives these players isolation and privacy by shooting them from an angle behind and a bit away from their shared moment on the field. By keeping the horizon low in the frame, the black sky looming over the group adds to the emotion shared by the teammates.
Bending down to capture her subject’s position, this photographer effectively framed the subject’s happy march through a canopy of uplifted arms. The photographer’s tight crop places emphasis on the girl’s expression.
Available light from the bonfire nicely illuminates this trio’s repetitive arm actions and expressions and paints them in warm red tones. The sky’s clouds add interesting patterns above the scene.
Atop the climber’s platform shooting down at him, this photographer showcased the high vantage point of the climber. The angle also provides strong selective focus allowing the observers to be shown below without interfering with the main subject.
