Nice sports shot but I really can´t see how this relates to the challenge if you would strip this photo of it´s title so I deducted a point for that. Dig the slight motion and out of focus player in the back but dislike the placement of the judge, he is so dominant in the composition he just draws my eye away from the player in focus.

This is a great sports photo. Excellent motion capture and good composition. However, it feels a little shoehorned into this challenge.

I love "The Thin Ice", and tried to come up with an idea for it. This is the thing though, BTW the photo is incredible too. I will vote very high for the photo itself, and for the fact that the standard "meet the challenge", has been met. But we are talking about Pink Floyd here, and Hockey just don't fit the profile. I'm suspecting that you will do well in the challenge because the shot was so well executed. GL. 7.

I love Pink Floyd, and i can honestly say I have never thought of hockey while listening to them, gotta go with 3 on this as I just don't see the tie-in.

Indoor-rinks aren't normally what comes to mind when I think of "thin ice". I also think a tigher, possibly vertical, crop might have done moreto draw focus to the central player--although it's also very distracting with the player right behind him. A closer crop would also make the face proportionally larger, which would be good since you did a good job capturing his focus.

This is just a magnificent sports shot. The sharp focus on your subject is stunning. I think it is a bad interpretation of a Pink Floyd song, but the photo is amazing.
