I'm not a great follower of sport but I like this shot. Not only is it well timed and a good action shot but it has a sort of classic, semi-religious feel I think. There is something about the apparent placidity of the two 'defenders'. Almost acolytes to an icon. The laying of hands, if you like. In fact, is the scorer of the try even in motion, or are they levitating him. Wonderfully confusing Dave.
 
Great timing and lovely comp

Now that Pete mentions it - he IS levitating!
 
Yeah, great shot. On first view I like it for the sporting aspect of the try being achieved yet not quite yet for the fellow has not yet touched down. However, I went and looked again after reading what Pete said and now I see this image like it is a 17th Century painting. Pete is absolutely spot on with his remarks!
 
How do we know it's a try? Can't see the ball on the ground..;)

Great shot...
