I suppose that if I followed football this would mean more to me.

I don't know a thing about sports, but I like the picture. I find it to be a fun composition, maybe not as serious as some would like, but very fun in my book.

Very much do not like the gradient box border I think it takes a lot away from what could be an interesting shot. The lighting is also too harsh in my opinion for this setup since the white of the hat looks totally blown out.

I like the idea but dislike the treatment. Would be great to see two people actually wearing these shirts and caps. Perhaps laughing and with arms around each others shoulders. Kind of "opposites" and yet not.

i know nothing about nfl so i can't really comment on the relevance of this.

i'm not a big fan of that photoshop border though.

Local netball teams ?

Ana said 912 days ago:

The Packers and the Bears are long time NFL football rivals. Opposing forces. Big time opossing forces.

I added the soft edging to give it a romantic look to try and personify it. Seems it didn't work!

I love the concept, and the way you've got the sweaters looking like friends.

However, the white post processing on the sides is pretty mickey mouse and ruins the images impact for me.

I'm not sure what the effect around the border is supposed to add to the photo. Seems pretty random to me. Is there a reason for it?

lbstone said 912 days ago:

Ah... looks like you already answered my question. ;)

Mark_Hamilton said 912 days ago:

Hmmm, looks like I'm on the lonely side of liking the soft white border. I think it displays well with the clothing, particularly with Weeklyshot's white background. My hats off to you for putting thought in how the image will display on the page.

Probably a bit too esoteric for an international audience that does not get American Football and local rivalries but I think the idea meets the opposites them quite nicely.

pholland27 said 898 days ago:

Yes, the international audience needs Barca and Real Madird jerseys. Or maybe AC Milan and Inter Milan. Or perhaps Liverpool and Arsenal. Or maybe Celtics and Rangers. Or maybe...
Of course, most of my fellow Americans probably have no idea what the hell I'm talking about.
