Congratulations on your 15th placing. Should have been a top 10. Keep it up, you will only get better.

Wow, this is just phenomenal work. The motion capture is really good and the lighting, well, it's perfect. The texture on the platform is very important and helps my eye avoid seeing the spinning wheel as floating in midair. Very good stuff.

High marks, love this shot. Great example of low tech device from the old days. The lighting and the composition is superb. Excellent work.

I am impressed by the 'cleanness' of this shot and the blurred action really adds to the interest level. It is well balanced in the chosen crop and the lighting is not overdone in any part, but I am distracted by what appears to be the greyness of either dodging, desaturation or wrong light reflection in the upper right. This seems way out of place with the rest of the image and has a strong negative impact on the whole.

Did you use a strobe to get the spoke image?

Nice colors. Clear. Has some action to it. Not bad at all.

Very nice lighting, good capture of the motion, and good idea. The only thing that might have improved this in my eyes is the inclusion of an operator.
