Dad had the idea for a shot of his son with his coaches thru the years. I photographed them over several days as they could come in and did a composite for them.

Man, I really like how this came together.... I think it's a great concept to explore so I can't wait to see more!

very very good idea and nice implementation. Only the man in the middle (right side, around 3 o clock) look a bit worse quality than the others. And on the man standing at 11 o clock the shadows I do not like much the shadows I see on his face. I think I lack some terminology otherwise I can paint in mspaint and show you what my eyes do not like.

Otherwise very very good idea and implementation

I think its awesome. Very clean cut outs (which are harder than one would think)

I think this is a great idea Hack, and they will love this. Nicely done!

My only nit: I would've liked to see all the coaches taken in the same lighting so that the individual setups didn't scream for attention quite so much (there's one that's underlit, one from right, one from left etc etc). I might also tone down the highlight on the football a bit (as well as maybe lower the opacity?) - even though the coaches and ball are important, I still want to feel the emphasis is on the main subject.

Thanks all for looking. It was tough to keep the lighting constant as these 6 coaches came in over 4 days with other sessions in between so many lighting and background changes thrown in.
