    Re: A water skier

    Of the three water skier shots the first one is the best and very good at that. The skier hidden somewhat by the spray of water creates some tension and definetely says action.
    The other two are just not composed quite right and although are not bad just don't have the impact of the 1st.
    The sunset photo needs something more. either a subject/silhouette on the water and/or a much more dramatic and colorful sky.
    also, the horizon is too close to center in this comp

    I like #1 A very cool shot. Image 4 works for me also with the tilt adding to the effect.
    Image 2 shows us a beautiful evening,on that one... I'll go with what gary said.

    Some OK action shots here. They are fairly straightforward. I like the top one the best, but think it would be better as a vertical formatted image.
