Excellent concept with an effective composition. The harsh contrast between the left and right side of his face hurts this for me, you may have been better off shooting from a different angle so it was more evenly lit. And perhaps you're camera's not capable of it, but I'd love to see a faster shutter speed on this to really stop the motion, it seems a tiny bit blurred.

not quite sharp for me and was the water that cold

Kind of discomforting... i'd be interested to see this with the bottom half cropped off and the whites changed to reds... but i'm odd like that.

Maybe a tighter crop would help.

Like the exspression, face needs to be sharper. Good luck

great action being depicted here. I would have considered cropping the bottom - no wait, maybe not - his reflection adds an interesting element.

focus looks a bit soft, and the right side of his face is a little dark, nice frame, and the color is good.

not proper breaststroke technique, and out of focus... but i'll give you a 5
