Man, I woulda thought this would finish higher. Got a 7 from me. For me, the title kinda hurt because I had no idea it was a breakdancin thing til I read that and then I looked and would have expected to see him in motion or on his head or something. I just liked the setup though. Good job.

Texturized marigold. Hmmmm. The colours are great. I wish the marigold weren't cut off at the bottom. The added texture makes it look almost flat (not flat as in lack of contrast, but flat as in 2-D). I think I like it, but it would take me a bit to get used to it.

Interesting processing. I do like the filter or overlay you put on it, but I wonder about the crop or composition, I would like to see the flower not so cut off near the bottom pedal.

I like it! Just a nitpik - the bottom petal should have a bit of room around it.

I like this photo a lot and gave it a 9. I cannot think of the term for the darkened corners but I think it is vignetting. The vignetting is actually detracting a bit from the phot and keeping it pretty dark (already adjusted monitor to insure proper brightness). I feel that you were certainly going for the silohuette of the fisher man and there are a lot of dark areas, but I think if the vignetting was reduced by about 50%, this would have been a 10.

The b/w is nice here. I sort of wish the flower weren't sticking out almost straight from the side, in other words, I sort of wish it were angled a bit. But maybe it works better this way, who knows.
