8 - Good shot. Good angle (fish eye? helps) and I really like the shadow on the wall. Criticism; I think this shot would be great in black and white given the 'lines' and the shadows and the fairly 'plain' clothing. Sharper and a tighter crop (to get rid of that roundish shadow and the top light, if possible) would make this a better photograph for me.

Nice shot but, the empty bottom is not attractive and detracts from the shot.

AWESOME pic, what an awesome capture! Love the shadow and the sky. A little bright on the sidewalk, but overall a great photo.

Timing is great, choice of lens is superb. Composition could be stronger with closer positioning perhaps. It's tough to get sufficiently reduced depth of field with a fisheye/wide angle. I really like the choice of flash positioning - great shadow.

the wide angle lens really adds to the shot. looks like something from a skater mag.

He must have caught that kickflip fairly early. I like what the flash does for this photo, except the shadow. The wide-angle lens makes this fit right in with what you see in the mags. Good job.
