Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Nice, just as all your comments have mentioned.

Lighting: Very strong and very well-lit.

Composition/Content: I think it fits quite well, even though you and some of your voters do not. I feel the action, and I like the approach that you took to this one.

My Opinion: Nice shot and a nice score to match. Well-cone.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

Very effective shot with nice lighting. Since it's a studio shot I'm not able to vote it as highly in this challenge as I would normally.

nice photo wish it would have been an action shot

An excellent sports portrait. Mean & moody, hits the spot.

Even though the challenge description said to show your best \"Action\" shot, this is an excellent portraiture.

Comp well done, dof excellent, lighting out standing, blocking of model excellent, emotional value excellent, if that is make up it truly is convincing, nice touch on the sweat, excellent skin tones, excellent texture, even though the blacks seem a bit deep and mixes with the bg it does not disturb me however more separation should be considered, over all a well thought out portrait, but not a good Action. 7

good shot

Perfectly done. I would never thought of catching the action of a sport in a studio.

Nice portrait - Maybe a tad heavy on the false looking black eye.

I don't like posed photos for a challenge such as this. Just ny opinon. Otherwise a nice shot.

Despite being a nice photograph, this entry does not fall within the parameters of this weeks challenge. That being said, I must judge this photograph accordingly. :-(

I love this pic... But if I were behind the lens I would have tried it out with 1 light source on the right hand side of the subject and left the left hand side in total... or almost... darkness... Try it out when you have a min... I believe you'll have a better result although I like this one very much...

Looks too much like a studio shot instead of an action shot. Otherwise very nice.

This was sport challenge. Get out of the studio.
