The Decisive Moment

Challenge #2 in the Moment in Time series. Hosted by Biggs23.

Challenge has finished

This contest concerns itself with the moment of decision. Specifically, that moment when a decision has been made and when action is required. The moment a batter swings, the moment a child begins to blow out the candles on a cake, or the moment that reality hits and emotions spill out.
