...and in the next frame, rider-as-lawn-dart? If he really is a college student, perhaps he has the ability to bounce, like I did way back then. ;-) Great timing on your capture.
Almost beautiful, this. I would have it in black and white - it would remove the humdrum everyday element that this kind of ordinary colour brings to a photograph - we know the grass is green, the horse is probably brown, the logs are borwn, the sky is a shade of blue etc. etc., and it would focus the attention on the extraordinary shapes of these figures that you have captured.
amazing capture. the helplessness of the horse is so poignant. horse and rider both seem to be in a gentle state of acceptance. The rider looks to already be comforting the horse. 8
I had to look at this image twice..couldn't believe you managed to capture this. Hope that horse and rider were both ok. From a photography standpoint -excellent photojournalism type of shot. Right place, right time. Well captured.
Great timing - hope you kept your finger on the button cause the next couple would be interesting; not that we watch this stuff for the crashes you understand :-).
I think the image would have been better if you had framed it so that the horse/rider were falling into the image (that is, on the right side) rather than centered. WOuld have made it more dynamic.
