The Oakland A's let kids run around the bases at the Coliseum after Sunday home games. Since Isaac had stayed all the way to through the tenth inning of a stirring comeback win, he certainly deserved to take his "victory lap" with the other kids before we went home.

Due to the bright sun this image is too contrasty. Polarizing or ND filter might of helped.

Border clashes with photo. (teal and bright green don't look good together) Pic is a bit busy. And I wish I could see someone's emotion. Nice play on the challenge.

5. Fits the theme well enough, and there are no blatant 'you suck!' flaws to it, but neither does it really grab me for any reason at all. For reasons of composition, cropping, or subject choice, it's just a photo, and doesn't do especially much for me, aesthetically.

None of the people are composed to be central, and yet it's not wide enough for the sweep of the ballpark to be the star, either. A better focus on any of the people might have helped.

How many runs can you score at once?!?

Very original take on the 'home' theme - I didn't think of that one! (then again I'm English...)

A cute twist on the challenge... might have been stronger to have zoomed in a bit further on the players crossing home, rather than the line in the foreground.

No real place for the eye to rest for me.
