Greetings from the critique Club :)

Gracious,

The capture of motion here is nice, but the image quality is lacking. You did not include your camera settings for this shot, so I can't really comment on how they affected the outcome of the image. It looks like high iso probably..

Compositionally, I would have tried to include the feet of the girl in the foreground. "Marching" is the theme of this shot and the feet that are doing this marching are cut off in the bottom of the frame.

Shots like this one are difficult for sure :)

It would have been better if not so grainy. Good effort. Nice hand motion.

If it weren't for the very white highlights, the blue horizontal lights and low photo quality (probably a camera limitation you couldn't control), I think the photo would do nicely. Potential's there.

Shame she lost her foot! A lower angle might have helped here!

too bad you couldn't get less movement in the head to contrast the movement in the body
