Like the sunlight through the back. I think I also might like to see more of the curve in the image. Interesting object! 6

One one level, ick! On the other, great catch! Exposure is off, and the color feels a bit flat. But 7 for meeting the challange topic. :)

You know, I almost missed this one. I like the reflection. It's very US centric, but if you have an understanding of US law, then the subtile reflection of the flag in the revolver barrel is a very powerful message. Meets the challenge, has interesting elements photographically...8. One of my highest of the challenge. I'd suggest seeing if you can market and sell this image. Its a political hot potato, but that does not lessen the artistic quality. Excellent shot. :)

This would be great if you played around a bit to get the reflection of the lifter's face in the mirror. II'd strongly suggest going back and playing around with the angles more to see if you can get a facial reflection. Meets the challenge, but not as visuallly interesting as it could be. 5.

I like the contrast of the dark blue sky, and orange-yellow backlighting.

Excellent lighting, use of shadow, and negative space. Makes me wonder what he's looking at, what he's thinking. My 10 for the challenge.

Thank god the crane is finally down. I've been trying to get this shot for months! You beat me to it. Nice capure and use of the reflection. I think the image could be stronger if you tried to keep strict symmetry including the trees on the right in your crop. You also might need a slight rotation. Great shot. 8

I love this shot. As a baseball fan it coverst both the past and present. I love the detail, and I love the subject. Coming in spikes high...The only two things that get me are the left foot (because of the light sky, the spikes dissapear) and it feels slightly sharp. 9

Interesting tilt. It gives the image a sense of motion that would be lacking in a straight vertical orientation. Nice. 7
