| I expected this image to have been in the top 5. It is such an authentic street shot. Regardless, Congratulations on your 12th finish. |

| I can just imagine how many comments you must have gotten. What can I say, excellent setup shot! (I'm just presuming since I see a dude in the back ground that's not too worried about his had flying away. Very well done, I'm sure your in the ribbon spot. |

returning for comment:
A winner of an image. The fast pace shows the uncomfort level and the gait accentuated by raised toes and the clenching of the brief case with the umbrella strugling to break loose all equal a wonderful image. A good b/w Bumpimg up. |

| ???? Nice subject and good idea. Did you try positioning the subject in the left side of the photo? Was it worse? |

| EXCELLENT action shot! This one really says it all! B&W is the right choice for this kind of photo - you've really captured the essence of "wind" in this action shot. Just perfect! |

| Something tells me this was not really a windy day--that the wind is totally contrived and I think you did a pretty good job of doing it. |

| Very nice! My only complaint is that the white highlights at the left are a bit too bright and distracting. Other than that, I like it. |

Funny! Did You install an air canyon? People in the background seems to be in a sunny day :)
Very good picture anyway... one of my favourite at this moment! |

| He looks awsome, but the background is very cluttered and nobody else seems affected by teh gale force winds. |

| I like the concept, but if you were going to do this, I think you needed to take into consideration the fact that no one else is blowing in the wind which makes you less realistic. |

| Interesting how everybody else seems unaffected by the wind. ;) Clever take on the theme. |

Now this guy looks like an oddball. I think this appears too comical and staged given the lack of supporting evidence in the background bystanders. Scores well for creativity and appropriateness to challenge theme. Well done.
Revisiting. This was executed to perfection. Easily one of my top three picks. :) 9 |

| Why is he the only one suffering the effects of the wind? Nice touch with the inverted umbrella (even though noone else is carrying one). I like the look of the spectator in ithe upper left. The effort here is great. 9 |

| Like this photograph in b&w. Looks set up to me. The stiff angle of the coat tails. Held in place? The backward turned umbrella, but nothing is blown out of place from wind on the bystanders. A very creative and fun shot. I'll give you another point for that. |

| Nice setup. Hair combed back and gelled, something propping up the coat and the tie. Cool. I'd like it more if the other people were affected by this wind. |

| If it were actually a windy day then this would have been a great photo but all the people just mulling around in the background not suffering the same effect really hurt this one. Maybe he's walking into a wind tunnel? Either this is setup or there is more than meets the eye on this one. |
