A great image overall but I wish the image was portrait instead of landscape so you could have captured the length of the sword. Great job!

Challenge Relevance : 5
Contrast / Colors :4
Creativity / Originality :5
Composition / Eye Appeal: 4 only could have been nicer if the sword was being held straight out that the crop could have been lower and full sword in photo, but other then that awesome photo one of my top rated.

what a beautiful subject. I'm not sure if I would have like the picture mre if the background had been a little more blurred and the focus was just on the jouster - never the less I gave it a high mark cause I liked it!!

The DOF should be more shallow to keep focus on the rider. How it is the crowd distracts.
