Comments and Suggestion from the 3 Judge :
#1
* freeze motion, everything suggest stillness
* unique photo, it would have been better if it were superimposed to a single photograph and not thumbnails
* should explore more in moving object or motion by playing aperture/shutter speed.
#2
* freeze motion, everything suggest stillness
* composition is better
* must improve framing and composition
* a tighter crop and better angle would be more pleasing.
#3
* freeze motion, everything suggest stillness
* nice and sharp
* good concept
* the background makes a distraction because of the vibrant colors.
* crop the upper bright part ould have been better
* must try the long exposure to capture motion on bubbles
#4
* panning really captures motion
* timing and composition is better
* crop the photo and remove the bus as it gives distraction to the subject.
* putting the lower right frame will also give more impact in the composition.
