Golf Bunker shot

 * Reason:While I was a player on the golf team for my school, I also happened to take pictures for our newspaper. These are photo journalistic but I think very valuable the the encyclopedia.
 * Articles this image appears in:Golf, Golf course

 * Support. Very well done picture. Sharp and well exposed. Representative of the challenges of golf. The posture of his swing does concern me because I am not sure if this is recommended for a sand trap. victorrocha (talk) 21:41, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
 * You may be right, he is about a 6 or 7 handicap though, so his swing is pretty refined. -Fcb981 (talk:contribs) 05:09, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

 * Support Original - Nice image, representative of the sport. Perhaps a tighter crop would be better, though -Halo (talk) 19:50, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Original - Technically excellent (particularly sharpness, but also the exposure) and good enc value. Though I agree that for the purposes of an article a tighter crop would be preferable (take off 5% on top, bottom and left IMO). --Fir0002 22:39, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Support both as a set. They two together show the swing and follow-through very well. I would suggest the side-view picture be cropped some. Clegs (talk) 22:39, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Support original - the original is good, with quite a nice capture of the swing and the dust flying up. I think the alternative angle image just looks a bit messy, and doesn't have the appeal of the original. Bob talk 10:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
