I almost submitted a shot that was very similar to this, but with a handgun!

Nice dof. menacing shot. good title. there's a darker line on the left side that's a bit of a distraction. I'd score 7, but am actually rating 8 to overcompensate for all those who might vote this down because of the rifle.

I'm not sure what it's called but the shading lines to the left of the face are distracting, and I'd rather have the Focal point be the tip of the barrel, not the sights.

very strong - the DOF is perfect. colors are nice and deep, much to my liking. the barrel of the gun is very low in the frame, though, and makes the image a bit bottom-heavy. (7)

Congrats on the ribbon David. This shot says it all about 'Best friends' they are not looking at each other but you get the sense they are talking and reminiscing together.

Way to go David! Glad to see you finaly got up-there. Keep it up, two more targets and plenty of challenges! Very nice picture... I like the contrast of the jackets interlaced with the middle gray that is the bench. The slightly out of foucus background and foredround also give a cool black & white spectral. Oh yeah, it's also very serene. Very pleasent to view.
