Good use of B/W to isolate the boy in this image. I can almost hear the flapping of the wings! ;^) Good luck in the challenge.

This is ok. The image comes together well with your subject framing. Enough going on to hold the viewers interest. Only bummer I see is the dreary sky. Kind of makes the image feel a little flat (in general). The forefront subject is fine. I hope that's clearer than mud. ;^)

Cute tie-in with the title. Took me a sec to see the dog. This is interesting. Compositionally you have the rows of wood centered, which works, and the subject drastically off-centered yet balanced with the girl on the far right. Great eye to see this image come together. The B/W tone also works well to help isolate the lighter colors (whites) in the girls and dog. Non-comforming, yet impressing! Good luck in the challenge.

I like the perspective you have here. Fun to look at. Looks like you could have gone up a notch or two yet on shutter speed to totally freeze the action. B/W was a good decision to keep the viewer on topic. Good luck in the challenge.

Ok shot. I'm thinking the pose takes away a little. Underexposed some also. Maybe a more dramatic POV would help. Seems like you're taking it from standing eye level. I guess what I'm saying is there isn't anything majorly wrong with this, but nothing really jumps out either.

Nice action but unfortunate background (busy and distracting).

Those horses are really moving! I can almost hear the thunder. ;^) You either have a very sharp lens or did some serious noise reduction on this. Compositionally it's fine. Looks like full sunlight, but you exposed for it ok. Should do alright in the challenge with this. Good luck.

Waves

It's a pretty landscape/water shot. Reminds me of the beaches where I grew up on Lake Michigan. As for an Action Shot? Hmmm. Guess there's action with the waves - don't know why, but I think of people and sports for this subject. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

This is a tough subject for this challenge - alot of soccer/rugby action images. This one isn't as crisp or focused as it could be I think to score highly. Looks like those guys are going full out...tough shot to nail. Good luck.

The shot is fine. Kind of "OK". Not sure what to say...it's missing that WOW impact IMO. Perhaps it's the lighting, appears to be mid-day with harsh sunlight? Wish I could be more specific - sorry. Probably end up around the middle of the pack with this one.
