Comment from Charlotte Morse
This is a good image for this competition! It does look quite realistic, though it's a shame the female officer is smiling as she gives the game away a bit.
I like that it's in B&W, it works well with the scene and your tones and focusing are good.
A slight crop at the bottom of the image may have worked and brought us closer to the subject, but without trying it, it's always hard to tell.
Best wishes for the contest.

Comment from Monica Morrell
Nicely presented. Nicely balanced and centered. Good focus and interest. Good details. I am glad this was a practice demonstration rather than a real police event. This is a unique contest entry. Best of luck!

I applaud you for posting this. Our law enforcement get a bad rap. There are so many good officers out there but the bad ones seem to always get the limelight and make hard for others to do their jobs. The image is well done and glad you did it in black and white. Thanks for sharing.

This is an interesting subject for a picture but it does fulfill the requirements of the Letter P competition. It appears to be in focus throughout but I think it would have much better if you had managed to get a bit closer or used a slight zoom lens perhaps. Black and white does work well here though so good luck with it

The use of black and white gives the image a timeless and classic feel, while also emphasizing the intensity of the situation. The expressions and body language of the individuals in the image, provide context and help to tell the story. Overall, this photograph effectively conveys the action and emotions of the event, making it a strong piece of photojournalism.
