 I know, nothing special. My plan for the Cold challenge went astray and 30min to go till rollover I had to get something for the team. Don't normally do reshoots unless I can shoot it better and with some twist on it. Here's an exception. My expected score 5.8ish and that'll be break my 6 streak. doh. One can hope though. I had a few different outtakes but I liked the smoke pattern here, I'm not sure how the bottom part of the background would be perceived. It mimics the smoke pattern so I left it in. Pitch black would've been my preference but those outtakes again, didn't have the smoke pattern and with 10min left till rollever I said it's time to stop and submit.

Well I liked the shot anyway. It is a tough one to capture and you did a good job getting the shot you did. Keep up the great work.

Incredible details on the match. I can appreciate the efforts in getting this results, as I have attempted this before. But, I am not sure if the white part in the lower half of the background adds any value to the pic. It is rather distracting in my opinion.

Nice, could use a bit more depth, though.
