Excellent angle of view and stop motion. I could certainly see this on the front page of the sports section.

Technically poor. I can see this being used for industrial photography, but photojournalism?

Nice POV but I don't think it has the impact to be illustrating a front cover story.

Sorry, couldn't help it. I guess this would be top story in a comic book. 7

Beautiful capture and I can definitely see this illustrating a story in the magazine you've chosen.

Mountain Rescue

Technically excellent, but as a photojournalistic shot I would have liked to see who is being rescued. I really like the fire-engine red against the cool mountain colors.

The person who voted your image a "1" should be shot! (Photographically, of course, so we know who they are:). Even the person who voted a "4" should be shot too...and come to think of it, the five people who voted it a "5" should be equally shot, as well as, the 23 people who voted it a "6" and the 32 people voting it a "7", the 27 people who voted it a "8" and the 20 people who voted it a "9". That leaves 21 people of the 130 who voted still walking around. lol

Seriously, though, I love the metaphorical interpretations that are evoked by this image. Mother as sacrfice (posed as on alter); mother as bridge for baby; mother representative as half of the circle of life for the baby; mother as soft, yet strong and supportive; and the list goes on...

There's a timelessness to it and it reminds me of the image of the fetus floating in space at the end of the movie: "2001: A Space Oddessy." It's very powerful. Congratulations on your blue.

Love the lightness-of-being feeling and the contrast with the heavy columns. Congratulations on your ribbon.
