Fantastic shot. You captured this at the perfect moment.

Good title - is this the hungover juggling league, by any chance?

Maybe misses out because it's as much portrait as it is candid - didn't hurt the winner though. Did you try b&w?

Good to see you back. Flame on!

Great bokeh and DOF, I'd have liked to see both of the subject's hands though.

Good, but I think the crop is a little tight. Would like to see more of his arms or even his surroundings.

A candid action portrait that is purposeful and intense, the image just seems to lack the artistic impact needed to elevate it to the level of the other images in this incredibly exceptional competition. From a technical standpoint, this is well done with a vaguely detailed background complimenting the crisp sharp imagery of the subject. From an artistic standpoint, it lacks "something" to give it the necessary pop and wow factor. Perhaps it's a little too precise in particular with capturing the ball in mid air - it might have been better to add a little motion blue or perhaps crop the balls out all together. The author might want to experiment with it a little, maybe bringing it out to black and white or grayscale which might help. A worthy and solid entry into the challenge, it falls just sort of being outstanding.

Good candid shot with nice color. Seems like something that could have been randomly shot in the park.


Note-I am not voting in this challenge just commenting on the ones that I can per request in the candid scores forum.

Like the Dof in this moment of concentration well captured...
