I can just hear the foursome behind you while you set up this shot. Nicely done, but a touch more DOF would have made me enjoy the feeling of being on the green a bit more.

Basketball Goal

I really like the background colors, the crop and the selection of an experienced net. It might be just abit better with a little more light on the near subject. I scored it an 8.

Great idea. Where was it in the 3s challenge? Also, I like the choice of white as a background color.

Not sure why the rim is blurry, but it hurts the picture a bit.

You really needed to do something past your title in this photo to say "Golf."

A little sharper focus to get the texture of the balls would have helped.

Great colors on the boat. A different angle might have been more interesting asa photo, but, to get across the idea of a racing yacht, I think you needed a view similar to this.

If there is ONE American that knows what you are showing (besides me) and comments, please send me a PM.

Second, I thought that "Ole', Ole'...." was a football (soccer in the States) song, and the All Blacks only play union (and a bit of Sevens...) Shows you what I know as a Yank.

Anyway, back to your photo: Black shirt could be much darker and a little more focused, minus a couple of points. Composition is very solid (though I might suggest a stadium full of Wallabie fans wanting secretly to be you to add a bit of realism.) Saturation on the grass could be a little better, minus a couple of points.

Putting an All Blacks logo in your photo, plus as many points as necessary to get to 9. So, 9 for you.

Please ignore the light nature of this comment, can't help myself. We visited NZ a few years ago, were treated very well by you kiwis, and have been committed All Blacks fans since. I really do like the composition, and am giving you a 9.

Nice photo, with a strong competition, but the connection to the challenge is a little tenuous (though I didn't penalize you for that.)

One of the best in the competition. Nice crop (given the subject of th echallenge) and great stop action.
