Finals don’t just happen, they build. In silence, in sweat, in the weight of expectation. Photographing BBC Etzella during the cup finals wasn’t just about capturing a game. It was about chasing the emotion that lives between the buzzer and the breath.
I shot this series with natural light and ambient arena glow, no flash, no filters. Just the truth of the moment. Grit beneath sneakers. Glances exchanged before free throws. Hands reaching, hearts racing. From the cold geometry of pre-game warmups to the wild blur of celebration (or silence), every frame was a reflection of tension turned into poetry.


Etzella isn’t just a team, they’re a story. One of discipline, community, and heart that doesn’t stop beating when the clock does. This collection is my attempt to bottle the atmosphere of the finals, the noise, the quiet, the pressure, and the pride.
Because in the end, the cup is more than a trophy.
It’s a mirror held up to every hour spent preparing for this one.
