A strong image. The B&W seems a little soft to me. The uniforms are too gray.

I like the wide style you used. Really gives the viewer a feeling how big the area is.

Needs some WHITE uniforms...contrast is missing. If you had backed out a little farther I'd bet there were two more guys, too.

Seems a bit dark to me on this monitor. I like the display of military tradition and respect you've captured here, just think it needs a little brightening up.

good photo, I like a little everything, maybe too grey, try to contrast more, i'd like to see white whites... I wish you could get in a good position.

This is an excellent subject choice and composition. The tonality of the black and white is rather flat and lacking good contrast that might make it a truly fantastic photo :)

Very good. I'm glad you didn't go for a high contrast treatment. The mid-key processing works well for this.

while you have captured an interesting moment the image looks rather flat with a heavy grey over tone. Not enough highlights in the shot for me.
