p.1 #1 · 2012 Shot of the year (for me)


I can't imagine besting this shot, especially in basketball. So after less than one month, I'm declaring this my shot of the year.

If a Sports Illustrated photographer takes the time out of his day to email me to compliment me on it, I'll take that as evidence of a pretty special shot and accept it as a great honor.

Nice. It's elevated about 100% since it's a picture of Minnesota's greatest win under Tubby Smith!

Sorry to deflate you but Indiana has dropped three in a row since this game.

Have to agree with Frank, the shot is greatness but never settle. Always want better, always push for more and don't stop just because you caught a great shot. I get excited just before a shoot because you just never know what you're gonna capture. Keep reaching for that next great shot but do take a minute to enjoy your work in the meantime.

Michael, excellent capture, but keep raising the bar. The year is way too young to declare any shot your "best of the year" yet.

Michael,
I agree with most of the other posters in this thread on the fact that you have captured an amazing image, but keep on rocking. I'll be looking forward to the one that tops this.

Thanks everybody, of course I haven't thrown in the towel on the rest of the year but it'll be hard to beat!

Are you often shooting IU Bball?? It's my school and I'm at every game that doesn't occur during breaks. I was going to add a picture of my own but realized that I didn't have a single great picture of this game!

I shot the women's game last night but I don't have any more plans to shoot at IU again this year, I was just filling in for someone who shoots there regularly who couldn't make it to this game. After the Super Bowl is out of the way, the rest of my spring plans will entail NBA basketball and auto racing.
