...first corner after the start.

In this photo, your technical modifications enhance rather than distract from the subject. I think the composition/cropping suggests nicely that this is a portion of a larger pack of riders, but diminishes the sense that #51 is in the lead. (Let his ego deal with that, we're just the photographers, right?)

 

There is an eerie lack of context in several of the shots of this type, with no sky above, no earth beyond, simply the subject in its immediate surroundings. To previous participants this suggests a sense of the concentration and focus of being "in the moment." Not sure it translates so well for others, of course, but consider others' feedback as well.

 

Thanks for sharing your work!

Thanks for your comments William. I've been shooting motocross for so long, and perhaps either out of boredom, or a sense of adventure, I've begun experimenting with different perspectives and presentations of the same subject material that sometimes works, and often doesn't. Better than losing interest when you're at the point where you feel like you're just repeating yourself. Regards, Bill.
