Cool shot overall. Bit static/documentary feeling. Yes, the motion is certainly stopped. Little bit soft and grainy. I don't know, something's missing to make this image pop. Wish I could say what...sorry. Good luck in the challenge.

This looks vaguely familiar. The image is sharp, well composed, and the motion is stopped - so you should be ok. Good luck.

Victory!

Woohoo! They won. Yaaaa. ;^) Nice capture of the moment. Not sure that the shutter speed was quite fast enough...or there was a little camera shake, but the image seems a bit soft, not quite sharp. Nonetheless, I hope you do well with this. Good luck.

Pit Stop

So hard to completely freeze a hummingbirds wings. Close here, but not quite. A little blur going on in the body area also. Good catch overall however. ;^)

Very clever. I hope there's not some major trickery going on here or I'll be disappointed. ;^) However you did it, it works. Fun to look at. Motion is certainly stopped. Overall very clear and sharp (pink ice cream is on the edge). Good luck in the challenge.

The motion is stopped ok. Image is interesting enough to look at, although I think your primary subject(s) are too distant to make a big impact on the voters. JMO. Good luck.

This is a nice image. I like the sepia tone to it and the range is good. The subject is entertaining and fun to look at. Motion has certainly been stopped as required for the challenge. You will probably hear a complaint or two about the shadow on his face. Overall this should do well, but voters can be fickle. Not sure if the subject has enough 'Wow' to break the top 20 - I hope it does. Good luck.

;^) I'm just sitting here with a big smile on my face. Soooo cute! Being in that chair/sofa, makes it look like a studio shot.

This image is adorable! Actually I like all of the ones you've posted in this thread, but thought I'd just comment on this one. ;^)
