Welcome back!
It’s been a long while since we exchanged our ideas and shared our experiences. For those who are new around here, a few years ago, I started this series called “An Unconventional Convention.” The objective was (and is) to discuss common experiences and also have fun, hopefully in a civil manner, despite our differences in politics or religion, or other subjects. I discovered the best way to enjoy and learn is sometimes just to ask simple questions.
Today, let’s combine two subjects: Sports and Photography.
My longtime friend Jonathan Kaplan suggested this topic:
***What’s the greatest sports photograph of all time?***
Note that in one previous edition of A.U.C we discussed and debated the “greatest photograph” in history. The consensus among us was “Earthrise” taken from the moon on Christmas Eve 1968. Why was that chosen? All one needs to do is think of the power of that photo, the first time we’d ever seen planet earth in that way, to understand the old adage — a picture is worth a thousand words.
Let’s agree, sports mean so much to many of us. It can also move us in ways that transcend athleticism and entertainment. Your challenge is to post (and explain) the greatest sports photo(s) of all time. Note that this is easy to copy and post in the comments section. Simply go to GOOGLE and search for the image you remember, then save it to post and share. Obviously, it helps if you can post the actual photo.
Bonus points are given to: GREATEST PHOTO and FAVORITE PHOTO, which can be different things. Anyone who thinks of an outlier gets extra credit, also. Many creative people here may surprise us.
Thanks again for participating. This is the ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-NINTH edition of A.U.C.
