Don't like how the blue sky gives the trees on the horizon a blue tint, but this is a good action shot captured at the perfect moment. I'd recommend cropping a bit more from the top by making the amount of space above the golfer's head match the distance from the bottom of the club to the bottom of the frame.

You get credit for making a stationary object almost look like it is moving. Nice composition. :)

This is a very, very good image. Kudos to you for such a spectacular capture. The color in it that is practically screaming to be brought out, particularly the greens and the blues. This is hard for me to score because I feel you are short changing the image a lot by not bringing out its color. I'm giving it a 7, but has potential to score a lot higher.

Unsure that the soft focused gravstones make much of a difference. Cemeteries generally invoke strong feelings and most of the high rated images in the challenge were on the melancholy side. By comparison yours is colorful and almost happy and that probably hurt your score.

The perspective is not that interesting and looks like you just stopped to take the shot looking downward. A different angle might have worked better.

If you don't come home from taking outdoor pictures with contorted soreness in your body then you probably took most pictures from a dull perspective. :)

Neatly trimmed national cemeteries inspire a reverance different from any other cemetery. Good job capturing that.
