After a rugby game where he really stepped up and did well. I think he was more exhausted than overwhelmed. Maybe that is the face of relief.

This is my favorite shot of the challenge. Like the clarity, intensity, soft background, highlights on the hair, cropping and what looks like a non set-up shot. Great execution.

This looks more like 'annoyed' than 'overwhelmed' to me.

This works very well for me. Mostly I don't see what seem to be "genuine" moods in this challenge, so your shot stands out from most. Good work.

Effective composition

a bit oversaturated, and confined framing

Wonderful sharpness and bokeh here. Tack-on and technically superb. Might have cropped off the tiny bit of white off from the bottom left of the shot.

Great expression

Nice and sharp. Skin looks very blotchy though, removing some of the red could have helped which seems too saturated here. A little too much glare off the nose.

Looks genuine. Clear photo.

Nice image. Good use of DOF, but this does not really excite me, as a veiwer. I'm sorry, but to me, it does not really evoke any emotion or mood. Oddly enough, the only thing I see in this image is the one gray hair standing out against all the other black hairs. My eye just keeps drifting back to that one hair. <4>

Well captured, good sharp image

Very sharp. Congrats.

Real and not fake with over smoothing like many are. Great job at keeping it real. This one will do well.

try softening the picture a tad. You have the emotion down though.
