There is something about the angle (perhaps because it isn't a proper diagonal, or a "proper" anything) and the way the front and back are cut off that add so much to this photo. It makes me feel edgy, a tension that is perfect for this shot.

That's a fun shot!

A little sharper and this wins hands down. Perfect capture.

nice shot but, the colors are very flat. I would consider boosting up the saturation a bit and also considering level adjustment. Very nice composition.

Great example of how the bg/neg space creates the wow. Maybe a faster shutter speed would have gotten them more in focus though.

Ok, how many of you have peed your pants, raise your hands!
This is such a fun capture. Great idea. Perhaps hit it w/USM just a touch and see what happens.
