nice use of framing here and good sepia tone!!

Ye olde sports. Great theme and composition. I like how you captured the shadow on the left side of the picture and the light on the right. Kind of gives it the dark knight vs. the good knight. Very yinyang-ish.
The angle helps with the composition. It brings your eyes toward the center with the help of the pertition in the middle.
I like the sephia, but it would be interesting to see this in color also. Usually the knights are wearing really beautiful bright colors.

Not sure where you had the chance to see this, but very cool :-) I like how you made it older looking by putting it in sepia... very cool. Good composition... wish the horse wasn't completely in shadows though, but I'm guessing this couldn't be helped... Is this one of those dinner places the knights castles or whatever. Pretty cool

oops, missed - why crop out the ends of the sticks?

Very nice shot. Good contrast.

Great submission. I think this photo would be better in color. It could be just a bit sharper as well. Other than that, I like it.

Nice action shot. I'm not sure if I like the sephia or not though. Good Lighting.

Not a big fan of the square crop. And perhaps you should have left the colour.

I take it from the [osition of the horses and lances. . . they missed!

Jousting meets the challenge, I think. Nice shades and contrasts.
