A good photojournalistic, yet artistic shot here, and one that works well in black & white.

Nice tones here.
A story being told, a difficult lighting situation with the backlight, and a good use of selective desaturation, which so often doesn't work, all add up to a photograph well done.

Pathway to Ascension

Comment:
Very nice example of what can be done with lighting.
Visually appealing, details in the shadows to add dimension, and a good title to compliment it.

HOOPS

Though I have seen this same/similar shot done before, I applaud you on this shot, especially with the sun dipping below the horizon. The focal point of the two playing ball gives a happy feeling looking at this. Well done.

A good example of using the right shutter speed to enhance the motion here, while still keeping the main body sharp. Well done.

August Night

Very nice control over the exposure and getting details showing in the shadows.
The single light (moon?) above works, but could have used a litle clean up on the blue halo (CA). Nice sky and colors overall.

These kind of shots really come to life in high-contrast black & white - may want to try it and see what happens - I think you may be surprised.
Here is a similar shot I did in a quadtone as an example:

ENGLAND'S HERO

Mood-wise, what you captured here works, maybe needing a little bit tighter crop to add more of the statue in the shot, and also getting the column true vertical. The sky could use some noise reduction and a bit more stauration overall, with some added contrast in the lower half.

The Fair

Though I like the fair lights, the sky color seems muddy in my opinion. Possibly a hue shift to deeper blues or reds may have made it a bit more appealing, even if not truly what was seen.

A study in H2O 2

I have long wanted to try the hair-swirling, water-trailing shot, but never have been able to, as I know it is difficult, and so appreciate your attempt here.
In your shot, the water (pool) color is not really appealing and very high on contrast, making the water being thrown, very difficult to distinguish from the background. The colors overall seem a bit off also, as her hair literally looks green in some areas, mostly due to the pool color. The human element could also be better represented by having a face to add to the composition, or having her hair nearly obscuring her, as it flies around.
Take a look at skiprow's shot to see what I am referring to.
