"Catch me if you can"

This is a photo from my first outing to shoot motorcycles... I have a

ton of images to edit and upload so I will be adding a few every day

or so. Thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated.

Technically good shot but I would like to see it in horisontal because you loos impact of this motorbykes way like this is now. Also, main subject is firs motobyke and beckground should be second one and you cut this is unnatural way...

I like the ambience and the dof, but I find ti a bit too symmetric vertically. Golden mean or thirds could've worked well.

Thank you fro your comments. I see what you mean about vertical vs horizontal.

Thank you as always for your comments and help. But I am a little confused. What is "Golden rule" or thirds?

Oops sorry, I believe the correct term is golden mean or golden cut. Imagine you have two lines A and B. If their lenghts are such that A/(A+B) = B/A then A and B are said to have a golden mean ratio (appr.61.8% or the other way around 1.618 x). "Beta" Mathematics Handbook for Science and Engineering uses the term golden section. The magic thing in this golden mean is that you can find it in nature in one and million places. You can find it in even in your own face (if you are about an average looking person).

Photographers have developed this classic rule to an easier thirds rule: You divide the photo in three - vertically and laterally. The the dividing third lines and crossings are sort of hot spots where you should compose the key elements, lines etc. Here for example the biker could be composed a bit further low on the low third line. On the other hand the thirds rule is fullfilled even now as the lowest third is foreground, the mid third is the object and the top third is the blurred background. However, it looks a bit static this way. It is still a great photo and it works in vertical format very well. Sorry for my English.

Your English is very good and your constructive criticism and explaination is very helpful... I REALLY appreciate it! Thank you.
