This is funny, but it does come across a bit snapshotty. Since there's no context, the horizontal line of the trees cutting his head in half is sort of distracting.

All my opinion :)

Good idea and nice capture. It's not easy to freeze the moment for the photo. I like the crop because the row of logs adds to the picture (it is, after all, the bed). I tighter crop would have been about a bear growling. Instead, you have a bear waking up. The story gets told doing it your way. Nice photo.

hello again,

maybe i spit back. lol.

i liked the guy but i was not so keen on the perspective of the guy there. i like the green trees and blue sky (could have popped a bit more) but you "man" is a bit off.

overall i think it is a great image. i think that the only reason you may have done so poorly is because you probably disgusted the dpcers. i personally think this should have done a bit better than your placement.

hello again,

i liked this image. thought it was cute.

what i didnt like was the blown highlights on the guys face. i think had you dropped the exposure a bit... the whole thing would have grown well. the suit could be darker and the fire could be darker. i think that would have got you gallons closer to the ribbon.

I would get to close to that one. I would have liked to see more space to the left of the bear instead of the right. We read picture from the left to the right and the bear stops me right away. Just an idea. Good luck :)

Looks like pretty standard dirt, and the fish look complacent. This isn't going to sell your documentary well. I like the image, though, on its own.

Nice and quirky, definitely meets challenge fine, but I'd prefer to see him actually breathing fire, rather than just 'drinking' petrol.

Composition seems a little stifled. Exposure seems good overall but his face seems pretty blown-out. Colours are good.

Sorry, its hard to comment on this challenge. All I'd suggest to improve would be a less-centred composition, and a capture of some action.

It's good that you wrote that this one is for a documentary. I think it's a nice one for a documentary.
