I was hoping to do a garage band thing- but all my equipment is scattered and didn't have time to pull it together. But I do have all my kickboxing equipment at home!

Nice DOF. The items on the shelf tend to attract my eye taking attention away from a well photographed subject. Good shot all the same.

I like the models expression, the focus on the hand, the DOF. Well done and a unique idea for the challenge. In my top 5.

I like the sharpness of the hand and the narrow depth of field, but even a narrow depth of field can't help that competing background. This would have been a more striking image if it had a plainer background, yet something that still conveys that it's a home gym (such as a lamp?)

I don’t think I would have figured out how this fit the challenge without the title. It is a nicely done shot though the background does draw my attention away from the boxer’s fist. 4
