 Although this looks as though this rider is finished for the day, he still placed in his first professional race!

Wow, looks like you were in the right place at the right time; but the interesting action is a bit overwhelmed by side elements.

This is a great capture and a real challenge but I dont know about the conflict subject. The shot is a litle blurred and unsharp and the tonal balance could be better. I also think that more croping would have made this shot better.

I like this idea for this conflict. I think what would set this photo apart (and I know it's difficult with action shots like this -- is if you cropped the photo around where the guy is falling and made it bigger. The composition is lacking a subject and a balance and you have to really look to see what's going on.
