Great idea and attempt. Quickly I do not like the wide black border on all sides of this shot but that is not important. The text is to small for my old eyes to read even with full screen. Nice work.

So many things to like about this one... landscape layout, use of red to frame photo and highlight title and the quote itself ties it all together. I think the quote could be set larger (maybe one long line) and I'd like to see some part of the person's head. 9

Font is only a bit too small.

Fun to overcome.

Great photo. The obviously precarious situation draws the viewer in, the diagonal kayak adds tension, the wet suit adds a nice splash of color, and the various textures of the water are beautifully captured. The text is a bit small to read easily.

Beautiful action freeze. I like the thin red border and matching catchword in the poster. Nicely done.

I would have liked a different shot for this INCREDIBLE motivational phrase. I guess you'd have to be a kayaker to understand the obstacle this person is currently overcoming. The water also is muddy. - perhaps a litlte photoshop to make it greener? Overall, good idea and great shot. Very creative. 7

...if you don't drown first. Great action shot. The churning water is a visual bonus.

Very poster-like. I like your framing and choice of colors but the picture is not very action-clear. Anyway, great work!

Very nice work and very nice quote. Definitely could see this hanging on the wall here in my office building. If fact, I think it is. :-) Good luck with the challenge!

Compliments to you. Text is a bit small, but that I'm sure is due to the size here. Well done!!

Very good idea, though I'd like to have been able to see more of the canoeist. Not an easy subject to capture though. The white text is a bit small.

great photo - interesting action and good typography

Perfect fit between image and text and a good image in itself as well. Great poster. 10

Great frozen action shot. Love the colour contrast between the greyish water and the boat. The quote text is a bit too small to be legible in this context (but I know it's the same like your title). Looks like pro poster. Well done.

Excellent action shot! The text spoils it a little as it is too small to read, but no marks deducted as if were poster size I am sure it would be perfectly readable (and this was about posters)

Nice, appropriate picture for your message and good action shot picture we have here. I also like your use of red to pull in your readers. I just wish your text is a little bit bigger for feeble-eyed seniors like me.
