The first thing a viewer sees in this image is the orange cone in a field of green grass at the bottom left of this image in the foreground. A series of three cones leads your eye through the center of the image to the back of the field; the back of a person’s right leg is in motion, blurred between the first and second cone. The leg leads your eye along the path of the cones, but the right foot is out at an angle ready to make contact with a red soccer ball, also in motion. It is my impression that the leg belongs to a younger person.
The red and orange contrast well with the green grass, which makes up most of the image, the horizon line is almost at the top of the image, the background is dark and does not compete with the rest of the objects in the image.
The small details in the grass, such as blooming clover alert you to the fact that this image was shot in the summer. It invokes feelings of freedom, out of school and playing in the yard during summer vacation, possibly at camp.
The repetition of the orange cones that are more triangle in shape offset the shape of the red ball. While the leg is in the middle-top of the image, it isn’t interrupting, because of the motion, it helps to continue the movement from the bottom of the image to the top.
