Very interesting! This has a very artsy feel to it and I really like it. I'm glad you had the guts to go with this look because a lot of people (probably myself included) would have went with a more traditional look since even without processing this looks like a really nice photo. You didn't. You took another approach and because of it I got to see an awesome photo. Thank you.
Nice capture of action. Unfortunately, it looks like to did too much processing with curves, the solarized look is not an improvement, IMHO. I think that the original with normal color curves would have done better.
