Great idea for this challenge. Maybe would have been even more interesting if shot with a narrow depth of field and if the cmaera was placed directly on one of the lines - allowing the lines to move either more to the left or to the right - and allowing you to really see the texture of the lines.

This one is lovely. I'm glad you decided to focus on the leaves. It adds something interesting and unique to the omposition. There seems to be a lot of grian in this one. I realize ISO settings on many cameras allow you to shoot above 200, but the grain is always an issue with the point and shoot variety (I think DSLRs are okay with grain at higher ISOs). You may want to push it a bit in the future and use a lower ISO with this particular camera.

A very well composed and simple shot. Lovely rich colours. Great lighting. -7

This seems very faded adn the saturation isn't that striking (even with teh trees in behind). I'm wondering if maybe your software program is drawing colours away from your image when you resize. The muted colours in the sign may have looked really cool if the background trees were really bright and rich in colours. It's well cmoposed though. -6

Good idea fo rthis challenge. My only suggestion is to tshoot n better sunlight. There seems to be too many harsh light reflections in this image.

Love that you used good sunlight to capture this. However, would maybe have been better in full colour than black and white. I think a shot with the balls exactly as they are, but shot vertical - with a bit more negative space, might have made this more interesting. Good luck.

The lighting in this seems a bit too harsh. Maybe try using a reflector or take the shot outside in the morning or early evening sun. The wrist guards are hard to make out with the chest guard since they're so close in colour. Good idea for a team sport though.

I can tell you thought a lot about the composition with this one. The image is very balanced. The one thing to consider in teh future is negative space thoguh - it plays as important of a role in composition as the actual subject. Sometimes a really active subject like this can look even better if it's offset by a lot of negative space to the right or left side - this would also incorporate the rule of thirds. While the rule of thirds doesn't work for every image, it would probably improve this one.

Really good idea - but would like to see somethign that draws and moves my eye - maybe something in front - like looking out from a chair in the opposing stands.

Really wonderful night scene. Would maybe have looked cool if the pole wasn't so centered, but not sure. Good idea nad good execution.
