    So many forget the post-moment moments. Well captured. The only alternative (and it depends on how you want to slate it) would be to have shifted the focus to the goalkeeper, and leave the celebration in the background: that, too, would have been a good shot - a win-win, with this composition, I'd suggest.

    Well done.

    Just depends on approach... jubilation or despair ... each would have been a good shot

    Moving Pictures, Rags;

    Thanks for taking the time to look at my photo and post a comment, always appreciated.

    With this type of shot you will always have opposite opinions, some will like the celebration in focus, some will like the defeat in focus, some will like to have both in focus and a very limited amount would like none? in focus.

    As this is an action shot it is not possible to cover all of the above options, these type of moments are fleeting, so I did the best with what I had to work with.
