Nice color, crop, and DOF.

Thanks all for the comments. I was trying to get the target out of focus so the focus was on the archer. I didn't have much room to play with since there were shooters on either side of him. I would rather have had the full target in view.

I had to crop it down to remove some distracting elements, otherwise the full bow would've been in the shot.

Maybe having shown the arrow in the bull might have been a bit more dramatic.

Cool shot and interesting geometry of the archer, not showing much of the bow but focusing on the angle of the body.

I like the composition though I think it may work better with her OOF and the target in focus and the arrow in view.

might want to change your angle to show a bit more of the bow. Also would increase the DOF a bit so that the target was not quite so out of focus.

Good idea, but I think the target should be more in focus.
