 Took this photograph on a road side close to my home, I used remote to trigger the shots. I was running right next to the bike and behind camera to trigger the photographs and at the same time wanted to make it feel like no rider of the bike!!!

editing wise I use "Color Efex Pro 4" and use "Detail Extractor" feature to show up dark portion and brightness at the middle. After that I used noise reduction from the lightroom and export to fit the DPC need.

I think this was a great idea for a shot and fairly well executed (I had a similar idea, but went another direction) You had great technical on the sharpness of the bike frame against the motion blur, I think.

What I think kept this from being really great were a few distracting details: the cable in the foreground, a fairly distracting background, and a loss of detail in the handle bar area. A nice blue sky would have helped, as well.

Over all, a really nice capture.
