I've spent some time looking at your shot. I do like the idea but feel it's a bit too bare. Maybe some balloons, streamers or more beads. Just looks a bit lonely. Good luck in the challenge.

I don't care for the blotchiness in the front and the background, it looks like it was oversaturated before turned to grayscale or something, takes away from what would otherwise be a stunning shot. 5

I like the BW treatment here, I think it work quite effectively here. Seems to be slightly blurry at the bottom, other that, no real comnplaints.

BW was an excellent choice

Dramatic - really like the B&W. Tighter shot would have made a bigger impact. Beads add to the Mardi Gras feel, eyes and forehead seem washed out compared to the detailing on the rest of the mask. Nicely done

I don't like the green hue, maybe yellow or even a pale blue would have suited the scene better?

Received a cryptic PM from you thanking me for commenting on this photo, but I hadn't . I thought since I took the time to look it up though I would give it a go. I try to stay ahead of how many I receive. I also try to leave comments on what I rate the highest and the lowest, but often times I don't know what to say about the tweeners. Tweeners I define as bascially good photos, but they didn't jump out at me.

I like the color and contrast in this photo and all the different umbrella angles I can see while they are free falling. It looks like the tree might have pixleated or suffered from some over-sharpening. The little specks in the blue sky above the unbrellas are sort of odd also. None the less I think it is a good stop action shot.

It's a shame that those little black specks ruin the nice clear blue sky. After the challenge is over you could clone them out :)
