    Snooker (not quite right)


    CLICK TO ENLARGE

    Snookery shot. The hand on the left is that of my neice, playing snooker... The hand on the right is her father, helping by "guiding" the cue...

    But there's something not quite right about it, and I can't put my finger on it. Ideas?

    My opinion on it would be (even though its a great shot) isn't that 2 different hands?!! And without the explanation you have given it may lead me to wonder more about that than what the actual image shows.

    Just thoughts...

    agreed. you canæt really see that the person is being tutored, just looks like they are holding the cue in a really funny way. Perhaps in context it would be ok though.

    He wasn't holding it to play, he was just supporting the cue for his daughter :/

    I like it, the second one if much better, still a little something making me feel a little out - will think about it!
