I would have liked to have seen the horn player in the frame by himself. that would have been a killer shot, with that lighting!

Bombs Away

certainly meets the challenge of high contrast (you've done it nicely). would have been a winner if the composition was a little more interesting, though. IMO, it's too centered in the frame. get creative and shoot this subject for about 50 frames, trying all different angles. I bet you come up with one that just pops.

very nice composition. I like the askew horizon (how many comments did you get asking you to straighten it?!) nice lighting, too.

besides the pumped up contrast that is overdone, this shot had potential. Cropping tighter on these shots is always good (get ride of the partial players on the right). Nice angle (it's obvious you were down on the ground, allowing us to see the youngsters' faces). too bad the ref got in the frame.

I like the execution on this one. composition is nice. not just a capture of blown out highlights and indistinguishable shadows. good job. 8

Wating for the Rains

interesting composition. not sure about the coloring choice. also seems not very contrasty (most of the frame is filled with mid-tones)
