Me and my truck with interests

The resulting photo here just appears cluttered. Much of the photo is shades of brown which do not make for a interesting shot. Finising some more interesting way to show these would have worked much better

Struggling to see how this one meets the challenge. I see no connection, in the photo or in the Title of it, to make me think this has anything to do with a person or a self portrait

The snow makes this photo look noisy when it probably isn't
The colours (shades) int his photo unfortunately are uninspiriong. Plenty could have been achieved in PP to get more out of this

Different, but this works. Its sharp, its action, the crop for me is great. Well done

Photo is soft. Board is overexposed which could have been selectively fixed in PP. Would have preferred the ground on something else int he photo to give it context

My kind of fun

I love saturaation in photos, but I think you overdid it a little with this one.
I would have been tempted to isolate the kid, and desaturate the rest of the photo (the background) to black and white, which would have made this photo really work. A great capture but I think many will mark you down for the oversat......

Throw Away Bride

I feel she is blending in too much with the background. The black and white, while good, means she does not stand out enough against the surroundings for me. The sky has blown out elements, while the dress probably should have been whiter. Selective editing of these areas seperate would have helped, as we are under advanced editing rules

Riding on Air

You missed him.
Idea is good, but a shame you didn;t capture all of the rider. Even if you were going for the entering the frame look, you needed his head to be in it, and not cropped at the top

CHAMPIONS

So, blake rode a winner in Sydney......

I feel this needed some extra Post processing. The colours seem a little boring. Upping the Contrast and a little bot of saturation make a big difference to this photo, as then the colours of the horse, the jockey and the surroundings have some punch.
A shallower depth of field also would then have helped a little, and/or some blur int he background (we are in advanced editing for this one)

The cature is good, but I don't think you got the most out of it, and that will hurt your overall mark, aas this could have scored much better.
