I like the minimalist feel of this image. Good idea.

After the Last Gun

I'd crop out the top area with the sky and the trees, and perhaps shoot from a lower angle (squatting or kneeling, possibly). Some contrast and saturation could make it pop more.

I'm not quite sure about this image meeting the challenge. I think it's a nice image for a different challenge topic but as it is, I don't see a connection.

This could have some potential but I think the harsh flash kind of killed the mood of the scene.

Seat Pattern

This is an interesting image, with lots of repeating lines and patterns. I like the colors but something about it seems "off." I wonder if it might be a need for more of a tilt or angle, really emphasizing the textures and patterns, and some contrast/saturation adjustments to make it pop. Good idea.

Fallen Captains

Interesting concept but rather chopped and disjointed IMHO. The framing at the bottom leaves the eyes wanting to see more outside the frame.

'Til Next Sunday

I have to keep looking at this one...it is growing on me more and more each time I open it up. I have to admit that on my first pass-through, I gave it a 3. Now I've seen it about a dozen times, and have moved the score up to a 5 because I really like the angle and the light. I think it does need more contrast and perhaps some curves adjustment, and that might lead to the need of a little noise reduction, but still is interesting and could be even more dynamic if given more attention.

End of the Season

Just seeing the fence without the field is really not giving much of a shot of the venue or the environment. There could be a game going on for all we know in the way that it is shot and/or cropped. Interesting color and good sharpness, however.

over already?

I like this idea a lot but the image is suffering from lack of sharpness, contrast, and saturation.

Lets celebrate my victory

Pretty shot for any other challenge; quite soft and lacking in contrast and IMHO is very loosely shoehorned into the challenge via title.
