Greeting from the Critique Club!
Hi! This is a fantastic action shot and I love the sepia tone you used in the end. It reminds me of older shots of wrestling and the uniforms haven't changed that much, have they?
Looking at this shot and it's final score I have to wonder, "WTF?" This should have been a 6 or better, I think what might have made it really go though are just a couple of minor things, to me. While a great action shot, it's off kilter, leaning from the right to left, perhaps a slight straightening on this for the background horizon to be more level? The wrestlers actually look fine, it's the line across the back that throws me off a bit. Also, another nitpicky thing is the wrestler's foot on the right getting cut off. Perhaps if they were completely in the picture, again, giving it more balance it might have helped the final score.
The capture of emotions and intensity is wonderful, keep up the good work!

Wonder how many thought this might have been my entry and you scored lower than normal because I burn out everyone on wrasslin' pics.

The lower guy is too shadowy. I want to be able to see both sides of the struggle. |

Good action shot but probably would have been better if shot from a lower angle |

Here's some people getting to know each other better! ;^) Good focus and DOF in this image. Like the emotion captured in their faces. The shadows also add impact. I like it. |

Good capture and you´ve positioned your self very well wich makes the composition very good (persons and shadows). The sepia tone fits very well here. |

Nice capture of the action, I might have liked the color better and a tigher crop. |
