Judges Comments
Lots of baseball this month, but few popped out of the pack. First is breaking up a double play in little league action, good face, bodies and focus, enough to stand out from a host of standard baseball action shots; rodeo saddle bronc rider hitting dirt, good facial expression and framing from hooves, hurt by a loose crop; third place is a play at the plate that is really not served well by a much too loose crop, really wanted to award this a higher place.
