this is where I don't really think the whole voting thing means much...you can take all the reasons people vote the way they do, and add them up...but it doesn't explain how this shot doesn't ribbon..
this shot speaks...it offers everything without your explanation...it is what good photography is about to me..
now maybe it isn't your very best technically speaking..the dodging spills out a bit around the faces...but really I don't care, and it is shots like this that leave me not caring about ribbons...
I hope I finish 19th in the Beatles challenge...

I like the colour saturation and the angle you have chosen to include so much of the surrounding area.

I thought this was probably yours. It just had goodman written all over it. ;-) Terrific shot - congrats on the high finish.

Great image, feels Durban in its origin and taken by a good man.
My only slight critique is I would like to have seen the embers glowing slightly more and it does seem a waste to have burnt a cricket bat;)

Wow, I love the lighting on this one. Maybe more fire would have worked better?

Almost like a painting.
Love the wide-angle.
Did you play around with dodge/burn a lot ?

Nicely done. The colours are pleasing. The symbolism is effective too.

Now this is just a nice shot. Nothing really staged. Just something you'd see if life that really just sticks in your mind. Well done.
