Very cool action shot. I really like the way the dirt being kicked up creates a such a smooth background. I'm guessing you lost some points on the power lines and the tree though.

Great action shot. Great colors. Perhaps a bit more shallow DOF would have blurred the power lines and background trees.

Awesome, it's like it was straight out of the magazine. Excellent colors, lighting, and composition. One of the best action shots I've seen and my first 10 in the challenge, well done!

The dust makes this image, personally I would have preferred a slower shutter speed to convey the action more but still a great shot

The powerlines are distracting. Could you have avoided them (or cloned them out)?
03/16/2009 04:42:10 AMPost actions
very good action shot, brillant colors. i like that you left enough space at left side he can ride into.
You coiuld have cloned out the powerlines, should be easy with the even sky

Really nice stop action. I am particularly fond any time an image has a diagonal line and this certainly does. Nice work and I like that top/bottom frame too. In a perfect world, those power lines wouldn't be there, but then you'd get a DQ for cloning them out. LOL :~)

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1124 images, I gave 31 of them a 9. Your image was one of those 31.
Superb action shot, great colours and clarity. Excellent sense of motion and skill. Great composition!
Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

I'm a biker and therefore am a sucker for images like this. In this particular case, I think the quality of your image may be more broadly appealing. Color, Clarity. Focus. Dramatic motion. Possibly among best of show. Congratulations!!

Voted earlier coming back now to leave comments. What a splendid action shot! You captured some excellent details in the motorbike and the rider. Wow! Look at all the dust it is kicking up as he makes that turn. That gives a great sense of action and of motion. Colors are spot on great too. I like the widescreen cinema feel for it imparts the idea that we are getting the larger view and perhaps viewing this on a large screen IMAX feature.
