Cute pic, but I'm not really seeing a wind connection here. Sorry. Good luck in the challenge.

Crisp and well focused. Seems strange to me to view it right to left. Did you look at it mirrored? Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Hold On To Your Balloon

Just getting started poking around in this challenge. Looks like you've done a decent job of indicating wind with the balloon and the grass moving. Background sky is a little blah...not much to do about that though. Good luck in the challenge.

Hey! Where have you been hanging out recently? Just noticed all of your beach shots in the recently uploaded area. :D

This shot has wonderful lines and the tonal range is great. The reflections of light on the water is cool, and the starburst on the light posts is an added bonus! Nicely done Jimmy.

Is that a boundary line (chalk) in the foreground? This is a tough call. As it is I think the photo is underexposed substantially, especially the foreground. Probably has to do with metering and the sky you were working with. Then again, if it was exposed properly it would be quite a bit busier with the buildings and other distractions in the background. Hmmm. The driving force behind your decision was probably the cool looking clouds, yes? This makes another angle or POV hard to do. May have been better off exposing a little closer for the shadows and then using curves/levels to bring the sky back some. Maybe a Gradient ND filter? Like I said, a tough call. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Cute. Hey, aren't they considered players? Then the games not over and the players haven't gone home. Dang, that's a bummer. I like the way you've composed this. One minor distraction is it looks like the focal point is on the corner pocket, this makes the foreground ducks a little soft. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Hey. This is cool. Simple, yet effective - at least for an abstract anyway. :D Should do fine with this. Good luck!

Decent photograph of this child, although I think it's a little soft, especially around the face and eyes where it really matters for portraits. As for the challenge...what's up?! Was this supposed to be in Bokeh III and you put it here accidentally?
