I like the central, silhouetted figure and the mysterious atmosphere he creates. I think the shot could be improved with a crop off both sides; I find the writing on the right hand side of the photo distracting, and I think the mysterious mood would be better served by eliminating the crowd on the left. I also just took a look at week 31 and can only offer unmitigated praise and admiration. It's a gorgeous shot; an action shot with beautiful composition and lovely tonalities.
