Critiquing, judging and Scoring of Photographs

In the Tunnel

Posted under Color, Critiqued, Sports

In the TunnelFinding drama in sports photography is what will attract our attention to one particular image out of dozens.  If it is something that we have not seen before or it has drama the photograph we want to show others is the one that makes us say ‘WOW’.

This image is defiantly a wow image.  This surf rider, who appears to be about to be crushed by the wave, makes us ask how did he get that shot.  And the next statement we think is ‘I wish I had taken that photograph’.  The success of this image is due to the fact that the photo-artist has eliminated everything that does not tell the story and his split second timing with the action.

I would like the photographer to consider making a little alteration to the contrast and hue of this photo in order to reduce the slight blue cast and brighten up the color.
