I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: I think this is a wonderful image - I really like the colours and I like the sense of pace; your subject is clearly striding with purpose and you have captured that. I really like the colours too - the turquoise top in particular.

Critical stuff: Not much at all, I suppose you keep me wondering how it might have looked 1 second before so that we are seeing his approach rather than his departure, but perhaps that would have destroyed the sense of pace I like.

Overall: A very effective image which benefits from a good match between edit and shot.

Wow. He looks like he is moving so fast. And that makes this a story. I can invent my own - you've provided enough for my mind to wander. I love photographs that do that...

Ha - love your title. Great where the quasi focus is. Tones - as always - are amazing.

Just gorgeous! It is interesting how folks see her as doing everything from holding back tears to blowing a kiss...that's a sign of a fantastic image that allows the viewer to fill in the details.

So electric, yet so primitive...I can feel the rush of it all.

this is a male-centric title Nick. For the gal, it is a long ride home :)
