I went to the pier to get some fresh air, and on my way back to the car, out of no where, this guy stands on the fishing dock and jumps into the bay. He continued jumping and I took two photos of him. He later told me that he had just moved from Seattle and lives in a truck because he couldn't find a job yet.

This is a great action capture and the desaturation works well. I think it would have been better to see the subject's face, but the photo still came out very nice. Good job.
I really like the simplicity of the composition as well as the tone in this image. You managed to make the water look how I like it to look (something I can never do). It's great to see something with emotion and life in this challenge. Makes me feel like taking a plunge myself. 10
