This image really stood out to me, which I find interesting as I'm not really into this sport from a spectator's perspective. The depth of field gives great focus on the subject, whilst the defender in white with his arms outstretched offers an imminent challenge. There's a great story going on here that goes beyond that of just sport. Having it in black and white strips back any distraction from colour, giving a sense of good versus evil. But with the "hero" being in black, it also offers a juxtaposition to the norm.
I can't look at this image and not cringe. The leap of faith onto an obviously slippery surface, as can be seen by the shimmering and reflective nature of the marble, gives the image so much tension and anxiety. There are a lot of questions to this image. The composition is really balanced, quite nice for street photography.
