If this was a picture of a bridge it would be better.

Great composition, but the flotsam in the water captures my eye and takes a bit away from the shot.

Great composition. The walkway (?) really leads your eyes into the picture and forces them to follow to the right.

This is a very crisp, clean photo. I think your focus and clarity are really what make this shot for me. The detail is great. Right down to what looks like a belly button ring. Although I can't imagine vaulting and getting that thing caught on something. ouch.
I do really like the angle and framing/cropping you chose for this. I like how she is over to the left of the photo, and how her pole is angled at the bottom as well.
It doesn't look like a photographer fault, but the background is angled to the left, which is generally a taboo thing for me. But since your vaulter is upright just fine, I can only imagine that the land in the back actually IS angled.
I like this in black and white. That way our attention is all on the front subject and not distracted by colors in the background. You have a nice tonal range. Nice whites in the pole and also nice darks in the clothes.
Definately a great shot. I think it would work for photojournalism also. Something I could see in a sporting magazine. Good find!
