Nice shot of actors! Wrestling referees should carry tasers. Well executed shot, in difficult circumstances. Not my favorite subject, but I'm going to go 8 on this one, Swash
Maybe that's what those WWF refs need: a stool and dunce cap for when they break the "rules." Might also have more "punch" with a tighter crop on the left, right, and top (maybe go with the narrow aspect ratio).
I can't help it, but wrestling is one of my least favorite things and therefore am prejudice against this photo ...trying to put that aside, perhaps cropping in more to focus on the ref would've made it stronger. Just being honest - sorry. Ruthann
Good focus and lighting for this kind of situation. There is alot going on in this picture. Maybe choosing one element and focusing on it would improve effectiveness. Or if you had changed the angle just a little so that the people across the ring didn't have a rope across their eyes. karmat
Looks a little snapshotish... From what I can see the audiance looks like a real interesting subject. Maybe if you go to another of whatever this is, you should try shooting the folks around you that are watching.
an awesome moment of exposure. interesting subject and technically well done. good colors and dramatic lighting. a must-see for any sports photographer OR wrestling fan.
Doesn't really look much different than what I can see on TV, but I try to avoid pro wrestling. If you had climbed in the ring during the match I think the image would have easily been a 10 ;)
