Superb capture of the action. The facial expressions and body positions are fantastic. Background detracts - it may hav been better to open up full and focus only on one of the 2 runners - with shallow DoF. (But how is this a team sport "WITHOUT" players...)
I know you're getting killed in the scoring because of the players :(. Thought I'd let you know you have a fine capture. Background is a bit distracting as is the head of the person on the grass.
Wow...excellent. The slight bit of motion blur is perfect to capture the feeling of speed. I'm not sure Track qualifies as a "team sport", but it IS a great photo. Unfortunately, you missed the part about "...Without Players".
Other than not being a team sport, and the fact that it shows the "players," you followed the challenge well! :) Sorry about the sarcasm; it's hard to resist sometimes... otherwise, it is seriously a nice action shot :)
I think it was supposed to be team sports without people. But I reallylike this shot anyway. It's one of the more interesting ones in the bunch. I would have normally given a 10 or a 9, but since it's a stretch for this challenge, I'm going to give it an 8. You may find your marks drop a lot more than that for this reason. Howevr, it's a really excellent shot and you should be proud.
Nice action shot good composition great emotion captured just not within theme. I dont know why you would enter this challenge by doing everthing opposite of what the challenge asks unless you are looking for a low score?
Nice action shot. Not sure about connection to the theme though - it was pretty specific about "without players". Also hurdles doesn't seem to me to be a team sport.
No offince but this contest that was suppose to be pictures of sports with NO players. I don't mean to be mean but this photo has players in it so a 7.
you are a bit too stopped down, the primary object is blurry and the extreme distance is distractingly sharp. I think a faster narrower DOF would have frozen and enphisised the action.. If you had slid a few feet to the left and gotten that time board and person in the chair out of the frame it would have helped alot.
Four legs, two players! Awesome. In a different challenge I would have rated this high because the action, the effort, and the competetive spirit are very well depicted. But the challenge says, "team sports without photographing the players themselves."
There are athletes in your photo. Perhaps if you had just taken a nice "perspective" shot of the hurdles themselves, you could have metthe challenge. It's a nice capture otherwise.
Good capture but I think you are totaly turning down the challenge subject by showing players in non-team sport and though there is a field in the background its not clear that it is for a team sport. But as I said, good capture and nice pic, just needs a litle thighter corping and litle touchup to be a realy good image.
I'll be the first, maybe second to say this and I"m sure not the last but it's supposed to be WITHOUT players, you are going to probably get a lot of lower scores because of that. Nice capture, good expressions but the overall shot doesn't really do anything for me and the fact you included people also loses points. A 4
