Looks noisy. Also I'm not sure the focus is sharp on their faces. Colourful and interesting idea though.

Good documentary style shot, but with the flash lighting and distracting background I can't see it scoring very highly here

The flash is too harsh , there is no backround lighting and the detail in the first clown is blown out. i like the subject though.

Had the flash been less harsh and maybe having this as a vertical or getting the man's arm in on the left instead of being cut off, I would have scored this higher.

Cool action shot, but it looks like there is a lot of artifacting in the background clown's face ...

This shot's pretty blasted, and I don't think those guys are supposed to be clowns. It looks like some kind of cultural type thing.

Woohoo, clown party. Nice clean fun captured.

I like that you found "clowns" in a non-posed setting, but I wish the focus would have been better.

The image looks a bit cluttered. Maybe a different position of the models wrt each other could have helped

Very dynamic capture, however I wonder if it would have been better to crop the whole top hand rather than half?
I find it an oddly compelling shot and I'm not sure quite why....

Not appealling visually - I think the clowns have lost their circus!

Lots of energy in this pic 7

Wow clowns lose on the street. Interesting capture. I wish we had a little more focus.
01/09/2008 08:23:28 PM
I think this would work better if the models were capture with their eyes visible to the viewer (the rear model is almost there).

too much like a snapshot - 3

Interesting. I would have liked to have seen a bit less movement blur.
01/09/2008 12:46:34 PM
I wish their faces were just a bit sharper.
01/09/2008 10:26:17 AM
Well, that's not something I see everyday. It appears to be a candid so I don't know how much leeway you had in composing this, but I really would have liked to see tha hands of the foreground subject.

Nice capture.
