beautiful yet disturbing picture. a touch of Surrealism. I gave this a 7. I probably should have given it more.

I like the set-up here but the motion blur isn't quite working. There's not enough of it, I think. So instead of conveying the jump, it just looks like a shakey camera.

Nice composition, poor lighting and too much motion blur.

This is an excellent image which for me is let down slightly by the blurring of the child. I know this is meant to show motion, but a photographer once said to me if your trying to achieve an effect in an image, make sure it doesn't look accidental. If you wanted blurred movement it should be more blurred, if you wanted to freeze the action it should be sharper. Please accept this as constructive criticism as I really do like this one :)

This would have been a better shot if there was a basketball somewhere in the shot, even if it was on the floor. Other than that it is a interesting shot.
