Such a perfectly timed shot! The colours are great and the focus is perfect, the only thing I would change is that I would rotate is slightly to the left to make the horizon line straight, but that's just my personal preference and it does look good as it is! Well done and welcome to ViewBug:)

Great Shot!!! Excellent Composition. I would recomend to shoot at a lower ISO to reduce some noice.but all in all great shot! Play with your exposure triangle. The A6000 makes it so fun!

Behind The Lens

Location

I took this one in front of my parents house in New Jersey.

Time

This was probably around 3 pm during the summer time.

Lighting

It's all natural lighting. I just exposed to the natural conditions.

Equipment

I took this using my Sony NEX- 6, with a manual Industar 52mm lens adapted to it.

Inspiration

I just love my dog, and think it's really fun to see how in to fetch he gets!

Editing

I did a little post-processing on Snapseed. I added a little vibrance an contrast, as well as a light filmy grain.

In my camera bag

Now, I use a Sony A7. I almost always have my Minolta MD 50mm attached to my camera because it's a super versatile, light little lens. Other than that, I sometimes use a Sigma 30mm, a Minolta MD 135mm or a Minolta 35-70mm. I like to keep it light and pretty simple!

Feedback

I would suggest using a high shutter speed, a shallow depth of field and a low camera angle. Pre-focus to a certain spot and then toss the soccer ball in the direction to get the action shot!
