This one will do well. Nice job stopping the action.

A tighter crop might bring out the expressions and the off-screen action a bit more. Still, a good shot. 7

nicely done...you can almost feel their anticipation as the ball is getting closer to them...good color and composition

Thank you for taking a sincere photo! I'm so tired of obviously fake setup shots. This pic does my heart good.

Nice capture. This definitely meets the challenge, with eyes focued on whatever they're running after. Good luck!

I love this game. A little stronger focus on one of the players would have made this even better, but, you really captured these guys after a lot of hard work, mud, expressions, movement.

Excellent colors, contrast, and composition. Is that the Scrum Half walking in the middle of everything?

Meets the topic AND is visually interesting. I love the one player from the opposite team being positioned so centrally so that the focus goes from him directly off-screen to the action. Really nice!

I like the composition here.

Strong colors, good sharpness and DOF and freezing of action. Also the possitions of the persons are sort of a comic. Very good image.

Nice interpretation of the challenge. It looks as though the player in the foreground is just about to kick the ball (if this was soccer....it's rugby, right?). Colors and focus are great.

Wonderful action in reaction to something we can't see. - 7

Nice shot, I really like that Fellows Halo.

I really feel that you could have benefited from more depth of field, but then that is the opinion of a cranky photographer :-)

Good catch. They are definitely expecting something to come their way. Liek the color and lighting. Maybe could crop the right side a bit to remove the tangled legs?

Spot on challenge and a nice capture. More depth of field or tight focus on the player to the right of centre might have emphasised the action more (rather than the player who is in focus, who is nearly static). Nevertheless, one of the best - Good Luck!

Nice. I really like this one, and it fits the topic perfectly. 8.
