1. Which image is your favorite and why?

My favorite image is the third one because it shows a true mid action shot. It shows the jumprope in midair.

2. Was your subject in focus and your background blurry, if not, what do you think you could have done to get your subject in focus and your background blurry. 

Yes, for the most part, the subject was in focus and the background was blurry. We probably could have moved the camera a little to ensure the background was blurry. The movement could have been a little more too. 

3. What angle did you shoot from and was it the best angle, or could you have shot from a better angle, and if so, what?

We shot from a straight 180 degree angle from the subject. It looks pretty good, but we could have tried shooting from a 45 degree angle or 90 degree angle.
