nice capture! i'll bet this was fun to shoot. something seems just a bit off for me, though. i'm not sure, but i think if you saturated the riders just a bit more, and muted the background just a bit more, you'd have a really killer image. but hey, that's just my opinion. you have a nice image, and i hope it does well for you! good luck!
I don't know what your shooting conditions were, but I think it would have been cooler to have a little closer veiw (like of just the three horses in the back). But I do like the motion of the moment you've captured.
I like the panoramic crop here, the image itself could use a bit more contrast or something. Might also have worked better if you had just focused closely in on the three horses on the left hand side - those three together really hold my interst, and would be really dramatic if isolated.
I love the ponies...Can't wait for Woodbine to start up again in April...Plan on taking a lot of pictures there in 2005. Great sports image that could be in the DRF. Would have played with cropping to zoom in on the two leaders and "get closer to the action"
