This is a really nice shot. I love the processing. I think it might be a bit more interesting cropped so the guys are more off to the side. As far as action goes, this isn't getting my heart pumping but it does show them 'in action' so it meets the challenge as far as that goes. nice work, 6.

Very nice shot, meets the challenge well. Could live without the border. Love the motion blur and how the bystander is posed. It seems to get a bit out of focus around that big light which is a little bit distracting as the light is pretty prominent in the shot. Love the BW processing. Good job. 6.

Really nice shot, meets the challenge well. The composition is well balanced, the colors work great. Good contrast - everything jumps out at you. Only thing that distracts me a bit is the flash being very harsh on the chunk of snow nearest the camera. Really nice work, good job. 7.

Great action shot! Love the composition though I think cropping so the guy is a bit higher in the shot would add even more excitement. Also think processing for a bit more color in the sky might have given it a little more pop, but what a great shot overall. 7.

What a great action shot, really nailed the challenge theme perfectly. Love the BW processing and love how you've balanced the composition. Really the only 'bad' comment I would make is I don't care for the white line you've included in the border. Other than that, really nice shot. 8.

Awesome shot. I think the foreground telephone pole and the hint of city lights on the horizon combine to really give an excellent sense of scale to the strike. Colors are great, really don't have anything negative to say. 9.

Excellent photo. Love the play of lights and shadows. The hues of red look like velvet and there is just enough dazzle added by the water droplets to keep it from looking sterile. Really, really nice. good job.

Ok, meets the challenge. I would suggest that you do not need to use your caption to spell out everything within the photo. The lighting on this shot is good, though a little light from the front would have highlighted those nice colors better. cOmposition is good and I like how it has been set on the black background. 5.
