The focus appears to be on the horse’s body rather than on the subjects’ faces.

The focus on the flank is great but I think you needed to either soft focus more of the heads or crip the heads and fade the flank. None the less very nice shot 6

Picture is over exposed, the focus isn't sharp. Horses are hard to shoot head on as in this case the head often looks out of proportion to the body.

I don't care for the frame, neat composition, I miss his ear tip a little and I sure wish the horse and girls faces are what was in focus instead of the horses shoulder.

the moment is sweet here but the out of focus is so distracting.

Seems too orange(oversaturated?), focus is on the wrong part of his body or your aperture was way open.

Lovely moment captured.

I really liked this shot- the bluish background is a nice contrast to the warm foreground. The shot itself definitely caught my eye- the composition is great and unique in this challenge. Unfortunately it's out of focus enough to be distracting. I'm rating a 6, but would definitely rate it higher if it were in focus enough to not distract my eye. Good Luck in the Challenge!

Seems like it's not only OOF but you have some motion blur going on too.

Nice horse and pretty girl, but the focus doesn't quite seem to be there.
