A very nicely composed beautiful result, Vlad!

 

Muito bom.

I don't rate any more, not even street, but if I did this would get a very high, even highest, rating.

 

The expression of the wrestler, left, drew me in, but on examination, there seems to be no wasted space or area in this photo -- it's a wonderful composition.  

 

I would be extremely proud to have taken such a photo.  

 

You certainly are to be congratulated for placing yourself at the right spot, anticipating the right moment, making sure there was no one in front of you, making sure you had the proper permissions and consents to be there, putting the lens with the proper focal length on your camera, choosing the correct number of players (participants) to include and spacing them correctly, then choosing the proper moment -- that precise moment -- to press the shutter.

 

It can't have been an easy task, and surely there were plenty more captures, so you also get kudos for excellent editing.

 

Anybody who tells you 'Lucky capture' just point them to this critique!

 

Wow!

John, thanks for visiting, your comments are always welcome!

Nice shot. I find B&W and the high contrast very interesting. They help create the atmospere.

I haven't been here for quite a while, but I will certainly be back more often. 

This one smells testosterone Vlad. Excellent timing on capturing face expressions, very effective selective focusing and wonderful BW tones! Very well-done!

Emotional moment!
