Comment by Skip:
david is a little too out of focus. with a longer lense, you could get this shot without the net being so much of a distraction. the action looks good, but the focus takes away from the image.

good shot I like this one but maybe a lower viewpoint would be good

Needs just a tad more DOF. Seems to have really captured the moment and the contrasts between the stark white goal netting and the absolute black sky behind is great. Would have rated it higher except for the DOF point. Congratulations. Good luck with the challenge.

Nice image Love the color but cropped a little tight for me.

Why doesn't the front duck have a bow? And why do have so many identical ducks? I likw the composiiton and it meets the challenge. Downsides are lighting could be brighter and the front duck could be in sharp focus.

This picture would work as well for the symmetry challenge as it does for the color challenge. I like the soft lighting but I wish the lead duck was a bit sharper. I would also have cropped it to leave some space in front of the lead duck for him to swim into. It might have also helped to have a very diminished light source on the left side of the camera to illuminate the visible side of the ducks’ faces but not so strong to compete with the main light. I gave this one a 6.

A little under exposed, but very interesting picture anyway. Maybe better if you showed more of the bottom of the first duck (ie. center the near duck).

Good colors, but the eye isn't lit and that bugs me just a bit. I feel we need to see his eye....MHO. Cute shot.
