RMY auction pickups

[bn2cardz]

I had a huge comment, but deleted it all as I really don't want to come across as thick headed argumentative person.

I purely was wanting to give my opinion that the image is a lot more aesthetically beautiful than Ben believes it to be (again only opinion) and that I strongly disagree with his analysis of the auction description of the photo.

As far as Ben's question on if this was the best Ruth photo. No I don't, but it is up there in my opinion. There are certainly others that I have seen that I think invoke more awe inspiring emotion (There is one swinging that always gets me to stop, along with the back '3' image and a Boston Pitching), but this one's composition helps it stand out among the barrage of Ruth portrait and swinging photos available. Sometimes different is enough to make an image stand out, and that is what this one does for Ruth.
