You captured the feathers of the gull in flight beautifully. The refelctive water makes a nice background.

Great capture. You subject looks like she is having a lot of fun. Slightly over adjusted, but a very good image.

Great stop action capture, framing and bird color excellant. Background is a little distracting, but a decent soft focus. Should be a top finisher.

Occasionally you see an image that, at first glance, is clearly the class of the challenge. This is one of those images. Perfect framing, composition and solid white background works well here. Classic flight subject perfectly captured.

Meets the challenge in a unique way. Decent color. Nice soft background. I would have cropped out the yellow forground object on the left side of the frame.

Fun image. The gatorade and towel are nice touches. A cheerleader with a low cut top and nice pom poms would work well in this situation. :)

However, if the king is on the black square it could move to N6 or aggressively to N4 to attack the knight, rook and pawn. With queen support and the black rook eventually taking whites rook black could easily get a draw and possibly win the game before white can advance its pawns.

If the king is on the white square then it could still move to K6 to try and escape... but then it would only be a matter of time.

Might still be early to pour gatorade over the coachs head.

Nice reflection off the lane and ball return. Given the position of the ball, I hope you are not commenting on your wife's skill level as well. :)
