I imagine that title is getting you more feedback than the photo. :P

It's a very well done image with lighting, clarity, and composition. Personally I think it's a bit of a "sex sells" kind of shot, but hey, I'm sure the views are racking up. :D

Good luck with the multitude of monitors.

Ok. It's a flower shot, but WOW, what a shot it is! :D I love the color and you did a marvelous job of incorporating some foreground bokeh with this. Tiger Lilies never had it so good. :P Nicely seen and captured. Good luck in the challenge.

Congrats on the validation and the fav! :D It's a very cool shot. Did you use a split-field filter or a very long lens? I remember you asking about how to accomplish this in a thread not so long ago and can't remember all of the details. Good luck! :)

Raiders v/s Falcons

I like the nostalgic feel of this. Reminds me of finding an old clipping from a newspaper sports section from the 60's or 70's.

While the composition is centered it works as the viewer is naturally drawn to the ball carrier, as is the attention of all the other players in the photo. :)

From an action standpoint I'm waiting for the play to continue. Does the runner get behind his lead blocker in time? Does his helmet stay on (looks periously close to coming loose)?

Wonderful capture and unique PP that works well with this.

Very nice lighting. They seem uncomfortable, especially the man.
