Lucky Break ...
... For me anyway.
No Photoshop trickery. This is real. For you ‘Pool’ buffs, it’s a Brunswick Metro table and was almost brand new when I took it.
I was shooting images for a pool hall promotion, in Bangkok.
Simply, a half second exposure, available light, and trying to time the shutter release for the break. Took a bit of anticipation as the ball comes very fast.
Featured in Dimensions group.

Saw your most recent pool shots, which are great, but this my favourite! Very clever, and a great “sunburst” effect.
