Loosing points for the Browns football. ;) Go Broncos!

This image screams for a selective Desat to help move the emphasis to the band. The football is just bright enough that it draws the eyes the wrong way. The band is clear and sharp, prefectly in focus. You just needed something to help direct the viewer's eye. Another option would have been a title change.

I voted this shot lower becuase I did not realize my attention was supposed to be on the bracelet. I saw the bracelet, but the football is sucha large piece of the image. It draws me completely away from the bracelet and I fail to see its purpose in the photo. I know it's purpose, NOW. Just thought I'd give my 2 cents for my lower scoring on this photo.

Football out of focus. I thought that's where the emphasis of this shot should be.

the front of the football is out of focus, and i find this a little distracting from the image.

II'm not sure about where the focus lies in this shot. a deeper DOF would have shown the ball and the bracelet in good focus

I really like this image. I would have liked it a little better with more depth of field.
