I would love to rate this photo higher. However, the motion is not actually stopped. It's incredibly blurred.

Hot air balloons simply don't move fast enough to qualify as "stopped" motion. But, the composition of the photo is very good. The lighting is too neutral, however.

What an excellent photo! Your sense of light and color contrast is wonderful. The subject matter is engrossing. However, the composition is weak and the lighting is a bit flat. Consider cropping off the right edge so the composition is more refined. I'd also crop off the top so the row of elephants is vertically centered, which would draw even more attention to them.

Composition is extremely weak. The lighting is flat. There is no drama in this picture. It feels more like a snapshot than a well crafted photo.

Beer O'Clock

Nice frozen motion. However, the composition really hurts the photo. Consider having the beer can at an angle and don't crop out the bottom of the can.

Great water! Too bad the human's posture is so stiff. Lastly, the overall contrast is far too neutral. But, the water is wonderful!

The Water Dance

Nice variations in focal planes. Composition is solid. Light is too neutral. Lastly, there is something undramatic about the back of a duck, no matter how beautiful its wings may be.

Excellent stopped motion, but the composition hurts the picture. The motorcycle is perfectly horizontal. Even if this how it was in reality, it undermines the drama of the shot. I'd recompose this at a diagonal, which is effortless to do in Photoshop. I'd also brighten up the person because the motorcycle is dominating the shot due to the hot reflections off its surface.

Strange subject matter, but the sharpness, focus and contrast is great!

Windsurfing

Thisis a rather tame moment for a windsurfer. The lack of drama severely undermines the purpose of the photograph. This doesn't feel like stopped motion. It simply feels like the wrong moment caught on film. The contrast on the water is quite nice, however.
