Grabbing the Brass Ring (I mean, Blue Ribbon!)
by LindaLee

Comment:
When I saw this photo I had to search for the blue ribbon, as it was not very prominent. Overall, I find the image to be very busy, and with a lot of distractions.

Not sure about the point of including the printed statement, it turns this into a photo of printouts, rather than a creative photo of the ribbons.

The photo is well done, and the ribbons are prominent. My only pet peeve about the photo is that this theme has been done many times before.

Incredible composition, and great work on the reflection. Very convincing.

This could use a little sharpening. If I may be so bold as to suggest a method, I would suggest the Adamus technique. I learned it myself a few months ago after seeing another photo on DPC. Its pretty simple.

After doing all your edits on the full size photo, resize the photo to twice the size of desired size. Apply the sharpening filter 2 or 3 times. The photo will looks like a mess, but it will turn out. After sharpening, resize the photo to the final size, and you have some nice sharpness.

Of course, my instructions are assuming you have Photoshop.

The exposure is excellent, no star trails, but still enough shutter to expose the stars. Great colour in the sky as well.

Incredibly well shot, and very emotional.

This is a really cool triptych. Great choice of movement in the first photo, the rows of skates in the mid photo is awesome, and the silhouette tops (or bottoms) it off nicely.
