Comment by Dave Gordon:
Just desserts, framing the frame. How do you rack balls this size in such a small frame?

Comment by smurman:
there's a lot of spotty lights around each ball. don't know if it's intentional, but clean would look better IMO.

This one is allright but nothing I am jumping out of my seat for. Truthfully, if I were voting on it in a challenge, like "birds" or "wildlife" I would just throw a 5 on it, not comment and move on to the next image. Nothing wrong with it though, good focus, exposure and DOF, just not all that interesting to me personally. I like your work and see you can do much better than this but again, this is not bad at all :)

I don´t see anything that implies your screen being off, this seems pretty well exposed and all that so I wouldn´t worry too much. Just next time you vote, take a look at the bar at the bottom, if you can make out both ends of it your screen is pretty ok :)

This is a nice shot but seems a bit flat for my taste, boost up the contrast a bit and voila, excellent shot. Actually not really all that fond of the composition too, a bit centered and think I would have liked this better if you had composed in a portrait mode, cut off the tree trunk and included his tail instead if you catch my drift.

::: Greetings from Critique Club :::

Hi, as requested, here is an indepth critique of your submission.

First Impression - the most important one:
Nice action capture. Title works for the challenge.

Composition:
It's decent. The main subjects are in good positions to make them points of interest.

Subject:
Subject is clearly the man trying to make the catch. So you defined him well.

Technical (Color, focus, and light):
All excellent.

To grow its vote?:
Convince DPC voters that not all good photography has to be over-processed and dramaticly grungy :-)

Summary:
I really like your shot. Nice entry for this challenge.

Hope to see more from you soon,
Leroy
