Clever concept. Not compromised by any distracting background elements - just nice and simple and strongly coloured

Excellent freeze frame captures and well composed

Clever post processing but just not my cup of tea I'm afraid - its bordering on freaky!

Jumping At You

Nice touch with the border, its not often people submit an image using that technique but it complements the image subject well. Positions of the snow boarder are consistent which others have failed to achieve so well done for that.

Overly complex title. Having the transparency is something others have not done and it well works here to show "age" of position and also serves to prevent the image being dominated with a lot of brights red and white.

Comment:
Lack of shadows is a bit odd and some positions are sharper than others. Might have been more consistent (spacing wise) to have just one position on the backswing rather than 2. Other than that, good B&W conversion and use of the wide aspect ratio frame

If only the spacing was consistent between the back 4 and front 3. The rest of it is spot on, great B&W conversion, lovely tones, clever signs and title. The lampost is a bit unfortunate, you might have been able to obscure it with the forground sign without effecting the rest of the composition.

Just lacking sharpness unfortunately, really bright/sharp/constrasty coloured fish against the dull/blurred background would have been great to see. You also have a bit of purple fringing would could easily have been supressed.

Two things initially come to mind, orange colour cast and non-traditional border - but I'm pleased to say I think both work here. Perhaps the orange is a little overdone but it completements the field and contrasts well with the blue water. The border gives it a video game feel and gives the image a "development animation" feel - hope that makes sense. The composition seems a bit weighted on the right hand side - two figures + stream verses just the one figure on the left.

Well composed, nice and simple concept. I worry that compared to some of the others I have voted on so far that the "relatively easy" technical difficultly might prevent a high score
