Great image. The clouds of dust really draws your attention, even though the action is with the guy on the atv.

Although this is a good photo, I don't think it meets the challenge. Yes, there is dust, but not identifiable as 'granular'.

Nice action shot! I would have left a wee bit more of the shot (if there was any more) around the rider, but otherwise I like it, the whole thing. He's having too much fun :D I know how you feel though; I love taking shots of my brother on his dirtbike.

if the trees had been blurrier, i would've liked it better. shorter DOF would've helped, i think.

This is my second look at your photo and after viewing the other shots I realize that I scored this shot a little lower than I should have, so I have incresed the score that I originally gave you. You have definately captured the spirit of the challenge and the shot is very sharp and well exposed. Good job.
