Very nice image, excellent focus and detail. Lighting worked well here. Only thing I don't like is the white background it is just to white and there is nothing there.

I'm wondering why this shot isn't in the top ten. Very nice work.

I've seen this statue in person and I love how you've captured it here. Having the upstretched body and arm cut through the photo the way you have it is terrific and I like how you cut off the top of the ball, even further emphasizing the heights that Michael Jordan could reach. The light captures the details of the sculpture nicely too. This is a shot any Bulls fan would appreciate.

the monument and Jordan are fantastic, but the photo could be better executed

Choice composition, especially the way you didn't include the whole ball in the image. It kinds of leaves it up to your imagination if there is a basket there or not. Also cropping out the bottom and top part extends the photo longer than it actually is.

Generally I like this shot, the color is interesting. I like that the top is cut off the basketball in order to show more of the arm below, though I'd guess some would disagree. The only thing I don't like is that this shot feels exceptionally flat for a monument.

Interesting colour, negative space and use of vertical space.

I'd like to see this with some background or a more interesting sky. there's no sense of place or context as it is now. would also not crop off the basketball.

The composition is good here, and that you have eliminated any distracting features in a background is good, though I find the white to be very stark.

Superb cropping! 9

Nice, but the crop is a bit tight. Perhaps completing the ball would have made it more effective.

really cool shot. I like how you use the full frame - most people ( probably including me) would have used the entire statue in the shot...i like how you didn't. nice work.
