Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Zack Greinke

Original - Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Zack Greinke winds up to pitch.

Reason: High quality, nicely framed shot perfectly depicting Greinke in the act of pitching. Slight motion blur which is always going to be unavoidable as pitching is by necessity a very quick set of motions, certainly doesn't detract from EV. This is a test case to go along with this peer review on Allison's uploads to see what you all think.

Weak support. A little concerned about the noise but still awesome. MER-C 08:15, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support I'm not a fan of baseball, but this almost enticed me to find out what was going on when it was taken. Terri G (talk) 11:24, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support - it's hard to get that DOF w/o any motion blur in a sports shot. I still haven't managed to do it... Jauerback^dude?/_dude. 13:59, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
