Cute idea. Crisp sharpness would have really made it pop.

The idea's a copycat of something familiar but still delightful. Perhaps it was intended but I find the exposure a bit over. Nice match of the blue background and eyes tho'.

Very pretty in black and white. Lovely tones. Just not sure about the blurred arm stretched out (took awhile to figure out what it was). 7.

Very creative in subject! Nice photo and background seems appropriate. Perhaps more of the "flower" rather than the circuit board and support at the bottom ...? 7.

Thank you for all the great comments. I don't have this technique totally clean yet but the score is better than expected. So it's really encouraging. Most found the left blur of the runner in front distracting but it was part of my composition and hence, the title. I wished I had been able to capture him more within the frame but he was too fast. Also, the original was strictly horizontal (as digitalknight suggested) but I found it too flat. Tested a few tilt angles and found this was best IMO (but maybe not). Appreciate all the feedback tho' (yes including yours MPRPRO). :)

Déja vu umpteen times but that's what makes yours excellent. I can still be boyled over! The b&w tones are really well done and the fence gives that little extra. Did this come straight out of the camera or did you convert in pp? If it's the latter, I'd love to what you did to get such crisp yet lovely gradual tones (if that makes sense).

Cute indeed! Didn't leave a comment before 'coz I thought this was one of those "given".. just goes to show what I know about voters. Anyway for what it's worth, I gave it a 7 and thought it was a cool and rather comical idea. (did wonder how you got that castle in the background LOL)

Cannot believe this placed where it did (not that it's bad but ...) I definitely agree with your "artistic license"! :)
