I wonder what this photo would look like with a tighter crop around the child? I'm not sure, but I think the subject may be slightly out of focus.

Very nice! I like this splash. There isn't much I can criticize on this photograph. The small bubble on the lower portion of the frame adds a lot to this shot. Maybe the only comment I could make is that the splash is dead center in the photograph. I wonder if it would have been more dramatic if it had been placed off center. It would have also been interesting to see a closer crop so that the splash occupies a larger portion of the frame. Great work!

Hmmm... flags and crosses... flags and crosses.. I think I read how I was supposed to vote o this somewhere... lol.. anyway... Composition here is great. I need one of these on my wall at work. I am struggling with 'stopped motion' on this one. I'm not sure that it's the best subject for stopped motion. It is a good subject, but I'm begging for better. I love the photo, composition, and technical pieces, but I'm still begging for a better 'stopped motion' subject.

This is nice! A slightly faster shutter speed would have frozen the tires and spokes a little better :)

The stopped motion in this photograph is fine. Focus and depth of field are fine too. As I was reading through some of the forums on this site when I first joined, I read some discussion about the Rule of Thirds. You may want to investigate this because it would have improved this photograph significantly. If you had placed that drain on one of the lower half intersecting lines, the impact of the shot would have been much greater. Look up "The Rule of Thirds" and see if you agree :)

This is an interesting cat photo... I would score it a little hgher in a 'cats' challenge but I'm a little lost in the 'stopped motion' challenge. I can see that the cat is licking but I don't see the tongue and, without the title of this photo, I would think that the cat is asleep.

I am sure that you are moving in a car but there is no indication of stopped motion in this photo.

Ok.. I have spent a lot of time looking at this... It's an excellent shot. The top part of the image is a little out of focus. I'm bothered by the vertical lines in the image... I don't know why they are there. If they are there because of a scanner, then shame. If they were put there intentionally, then why? I thought for a moment that they may be part of a background but I can see them in the top part of the water as well and through the water.... I'll wait to see what happens on this one. If it stays, it's getting a decent score. Improvements would have been tighter focus on the top and removal of those verticals....

Is this a vase falling on a bed? I think the shot would be better with the vase at some different angle. I would also like to see less empty space up top...

Very nice composition in this photo. In a "stopped motion" challenge, I would like to see more "stopped motion". I can see that the kids are moving down the slide but I would love to see a more defined stopping of the motion.
