THE UNINTENDED POSE

There are times in the world of sport when you don’t want to be the star. A classic example: A basketball player wants to block the ball and jumps up with his arms outstretched. At that very moment, the photo is taken.

The image shows the player in an almost ballet-like pose, with his eyes closed and the ball just flying past him. This photo will later go viral on social networks, less for the sporting achievement than for the unintentional humor of the moment.
