The injury had to been a bummer for sure, yet it appears that the ref is smiling? I imagine he didn't move very far for awhile...perhaps a grimace or dour look would have made this socre a tad higher? Just a thought.

Otherwise, I think the comp is fine. Yes, there's "stuff" in the way, but it's fairly easy to see what's going on, and actually the positioning of the subject is done in a classical ROT layout. Ok, so maybe you could've taken a smidge off the left. :-)

Good concept, but the strong lines from the table and bench make you search for the subject, and even longer to figure out whats wrong.

Nice. This is obviously a candid, but the placement of the table and the Pepsi cup is unfortunate.
