1-in terms of peak action, this is unexpected for basketball and interesting - it’s composed like a painting, with a distinct decisive moment and a face on the right below the basketball that centers the viewer’s attention.
2-The hat coming off of this rider’s head is the kind of punctum that elevates this photo from a typical rodeo image to something that’s humorous and keeps the viewer engaged. A moment nicely captured!
