I think the framing could have been changed so the kayak would be more in the top corner.

Tough to meter this shot. Great composition. The white water is almost too white at the bottom for my liking but I guess that's the point and any darker would've hurt the kayaker.

One of my favorites to ribbon this week, this is a story in and of itself! What a great amount of patience you must have displayed to get this shot. Congratulations!

8 - Great action shot. Criticism; maybe a slightly sharper angle, not sure. Water enhanced more somehow. Sharper focus on the kayaker. A little more 'depth' and color would make this a better shot for me.

Great capture... looks scary! Wherever could you have been standing for an opportunity like this??

The decisive moment. I doubt this could be done again if you didn't get it right the first time. The way the boat is just about over the edge but still horizontal is excellent. The fury of the white white agains the green of the upper water is fantastic. Well done. Judi

Nice action! And very extreme! Don't know if I'd like to see the 'after' shot! The subject doesn't really seem to be the centre of attention so I feel the composition is a little off.

This is almost too scary to look at! It's a terrific capture. I like the composition - you managed to be close enough to see the details yet far enough to give a good sense of the difficulty!

Excellent. I love the detail in the water and the "frozenness" of the moment (great stop-action in other words). I would have liked the kayaker more to the left to emphasis where s/he is going, but this is a minor quibble.

Hell of a shot, but for what it's worth this ain't "rafting", it's kayaking. Not deducting for that...
