A R Napravnik is the top rider in Maryland, and probably the best apprentice jockey in the country, just after her second of four wins on this rainy day at Pimlico.

COngratulations on high score and placement. You submission has everything to make it a great composition. I tried hard to find anything to comment on (for improvement) bu could not find anything. The only thing which I can think of is bit more of contrast. The expressions of subject are very natural. The DOF is just fine and cropping is perfect (there are many photos with lots of background in this challenge which takes away focus from subject).
There are some more great portraits (of birds :)) in your portfolio. "simply a robin" is "wow"
Man, I am definitely becoming a Harvey groupie I guess. This is yet another of your images I gave a very high score to. I expected to see this in the top 10. Very fine, understated work, as I have come to expect from you.
