| well, i LOVE the big border! i think it sets the shot apart and adds to sense of being closed in by the water. excellent work as always, les! |

| wow! This is very well illustrated! It has that dreamy look like when you're having a nightmare about drowning. I happen to love borders, so I'm happy to see one get such a good score with a bold border :) |

| Good drowning shot. The frame takes away from this though, so you know for the next challenge. |

| Not sure the big border works real well here, but no matter - the image conveys the fear and emotion well for the challenge. |

| Everybody has a fear of drowning. Not a very good photo (my view only), but I do get the sensation of fear. |

| Really like the turbulent textured water distorting face and are. Color in right arm is a great bonus. I didn't care for the heavy blck border, it makes it feel a bit chunky, a bit thinner perhaps ? Actual photo is great "8" |

| I like the colors and the effects to show the movement of the water. The border doesn't need to be so big. |

| Dramatic, good job! Would it have been better to light the back and darken the front, so that it looked like he was on the deep end? |

Just back for comments...
Excellent use of border to "push" the picture inward and give that drowning feeling. Wonderful capture of action and facial expression as well. If I had to be picky, perhaps hands doing more flailing might also have helped to convey this phobia. Very well done.. one of my top picks for this challenge! Good luck! |

| Great image! Really does present a scary moment. Nicely done - though the border may be a bit much. |

| Water looks more inviting than frightening. The element of panic might be better asserted if a slower shutter is used to blur the man's struggle. |

| fantastic interpretation of the challenge, and I like the feel you gave it. The colors inparticular are intriguing, and then the black towards the top seem to give it that fear of death feel. I don't know exactly what it is about it, I just think you did a wonderful job at achieving the overall feel for the challenge. Perhaps the best interpretation I have seen yet. GL. |

| Yup I want this one, great action, color lighting, and that vague sense of menace that really gets a phobia going. One of two tens in the challenge, I hope to see it just above mine on the ribbon stand |

This poor guy looks like he has a darn good reason to fear drowning....looks way past a phobia (i.e. an unfounded fear).
Very nice colors, but I don't care for the very chunky border. |

| Gutsy, really good photographically and you have included the fear, not just the object. The dark and light are really dramatic, you're going to be in the ttop 20 at least I would think |
