Greetings from the Critique Club

My thoughts are very much along the lines of Ubique's. The blur is wonderful and I love the shadow of the bike.

For DPC though, the image probably needs a bit of a saturation and contrast boost. This may have helped the score a little. I may have been tempted to actually convert it to black and white.

I have to confess, I find it quite hard to critique this image.

I love photographs where the action takes place partly outside the frame, yet the magic is all the more visible. Thank you.

Great motion. I'd love a levels or curves adjust to get a wider range of tones as well as more contrast. But it's pretty cool the way it is as well.

I like the diagonal shadow. I like how he's riding into the frame.
