Nice contrast. Great character in the faces, especially the driver. The smirk on the rider's is a bit distracting, but not too bad.

Nice image, but it would be more effective if the US flag were more prominent. It could use a bit of straightening too.

Tied Together for 42km

The blurry right hand of #1579 detracts, as does the index finger pointing it out so well. Strange type of race, where people are tied together while running!

We Put The Bad In Badminton

Looks like a posed shot from a bad Adam Sandler movie. Badminton is not play with tennis nets. Nice humor value, but so-so execution.

He Needs Her

Comment:
The crooked door frame in the background distracts, as does the bright window corner. The contrast is not quite right for a monochrome presentation. It looks like you simply removed the color. There is a good emotional feel to it, but the lack of good framing, hidden faces, and poor contrast hurt the overall effect of the image.

Quite grainy. The composition is a bit off (too low in the frame.)

Winning Team

Wonderful definition in the horses muscles, but I think it is over-sharpened a bit. The horse and rider look almost like they were dropped in. I'm not sure what the reason for doing this as monochrome is either. The greenery in the background would be very nice.

With only the foreground bystander out of focus and long DOF for the rest of the shot this doesn't look like intentional foreground bokeh for an effect but more like the photographer should have moved over two steps to the left.

I don't see much bokeh here at all. DNMC
