Giving it Everything

The PS motion blur works pretty well here, but I'm not a big fan of using fake motion blurs in general. It still has the effect of discrediting this as a photographic achievement and giving it an artificial feel. Private message me if I'm wrong and this was done in camera, and I'll be sure to reconsider the shot.

I'm not a fan of the photoshopped motion blur. I'd recommend sticking to the camera for effects. This ends up looking cheesy and discrediting the shot as a valid photographic effort.

Skating Boarding Action

The subject itself is interesting but he's mostly centered in the shot and everything that surrounds him is pretty dull. I'd say get in closer and make him fill up as much of the frame as you can manage to avoid including so much of the uninteresting background. And if you've got enough resolution to play with, I'd consider cropping it closer as well.

Happiness is an Action word

Maybe not always, but if you need a title that trys to convince your audience that your shot fits the challenge, it probably doesn't fit the challenge. I think this shot is pushing the criteria of an action shot. That aside, my natural reaction to this shot meant to represent happiness is mild disgust. The dog might be enjoying that bone greatly, but it just looks a little bit nasty to me.

The image quality is rather low here. I"m not sure if this has been over-processed in a neat-image type program or if it has been cropped too much or some other problem has come up, but there really is hardly any detail available here at all, and it is a problem.

Lots of action, but the subject is somewhat obscured by it. Perhaps a wider angle would show what was going on better while still capturing the scene effectively.

It definately looks like you were pushing your ISO on this shot, and I don't think the grain works well for it.

Top Flight

Well executed, although the resulting image is a little dull. And is that tee stuck into midair?

I might have trimmed the top down a bit because the large empty space at top right seems to detract in my eyes. A very nice shot overall.
