Had I voted I probably would've given this a 6. I think there's some great motion here, and that bodes well for an "action" challenge. There are a few hot spots that distract the eye, the blue jockey's hat and a bit of the rail on the inside section of the track. I also tried 'cropping' the image myself by adjusting the screen size and I liked it better with that blurry reddish/pink area on the right cropped out. I found it made the image feel a bit more open and almost as if they could be close to the finish line - for some reason the addition of the reddish area made it feel closed up and less dramatic to me. I'm just weird that way I guess. Sharp focus can almost always be better but I think you did a good job here, especially when panning. |
