Weird thing...this picture is 100% nature. Took a walk with my friend and found this humongous puddle (more like a pond) after a heavy rain and found this random, dirty baseball in the middle. Reminded me of something from a movie...

This is really cool, a good subject, but if the focus of the picture is supposed to be the baseball (as the title suggests), then the frame should encompass a smaller area.  (zoom in more)  Also, the angle (considering the title) should be from the land--a head-on shot of the baseball, looking out toward the rest of the water (if that makes sense), as if somebody just discovered the ball floating in the water.

I give myself very good advice,
But I very seldom follow it,
That explains the trouble that I'm always in,
Be patient, is very good advice,
But the waiting makes me curious,
And I'd love the change,
Should something strange begin,
Well I went along my merry way,
And I never stopped to reason,
I should have know there'd be a price to pay,
Someday...someday,
I give myself very good advice,
But I very seldom follow it,
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?
Will I ever learn to do the things I should?

I like this a lot. The title makes it really stand out.

My only advice here would be to crop out some of that dead space, but still keep the baseball out of the center. Y'know? (:

This made me a tiny bit sad for some reason. It must not be fun to be a baseball.
