LOOK: Patriots' on-field celebrations captured in series of photos

One of our favorite parts of any Super Bowl is the final whistle because while everyone scurries onto the field to capture 100 different intimate moments, we can take it all in from several hundred feet away in the press box.

We readily admit that we have no idea what we're photographing at the time -- there's simply too much going on -- but once we download the photos and zoom into different parts of the field, we can really appreciate the individual storylines playing out.

Here are a few of our favorites:

1. Tom Brady takes a knee for the last time

Here's the wide-angle view:

Here's a closeup of Matthew Slater going to his knees to celebrate while behind him, a photographer sprints to get pictures of Brady but runs full speed into fullback James Develin.

2. Julian Edelman pancakes a coach while Brandon Browner TALKS VERY LOUDLY to his former teammates

Here's the wide-angle view:

You can see Edelman at the top of the photo below, celebrating with an assistant coach, though we can't tell who it is. (We're just going to assume it's Josh McDaniels.)

Bottom left: Browner appears to be having an animated conversation with Doug Baldwin.

Follow the fuchsia (don't ask) arrows to find a shell-shocked Pete Carroll leaving the field while Russell Wilson, some 10 yards behind, makes his way through the mass of humanity. To Wilson's left, Bill Belichick shares a moment with Michael Bennett (presumably telling the defensive end just how disruptive he was during the game).

3. As Pete Carroll leaves, Tom Brady celebrates and owner Bob Kraft looks on

Here's the wide-angle view:

Again, follow the fuchsia so see Carroll make his way to the locker room while Brady is swarmed by media as Kraft tries to get to his quarterback.

4. The moment is NOT too big for Malcolm Butler

Here's the wide-angle view:

Surreal is probably the best way to describe Butler's interception and everything that followed, and that includes finding himself on national television being interviewed by NBC's Michelle Tafoya.

Rob Gronkowski can be seen celebrating with teammate Tim Wright just a few yards behind Butler.
