    I like the opposing eye contact- jockey on left sizing up his competition, horse

    on right sizing up the other horse. Not to mention the immediacy conveyed by

    the wide angle and composition.

    As mentioned before, Richard Avedon pioneered this concentration on the subject with a white background. This one however doesn't have character.

    Boring and cold, too clinical. Plus, I've seen this sort of portrait work done before- the blank white background deal. By a famous photographer back in the day whose name eludes me, but I'm sure others know who it is. This famous photog did it more successfully since there was more conveyance from the subjects usually.

    This was taken at an airport in Council Bluffs, Iowa. It's currently being flown to airshows around the country by a retired Air Force General I believe. "GUNFIGHTER"

    Thanks for the comments! This is from a negative scan. I printed it last night in my darkroom, and burned the sky in nicely, some of the hot spots mentioned, but didn't need to dodge the tree in the foreground since in a print the resolution was higher and it was more in focus. Does make me curious about playing with dodging to make it pop out a bit more in print though. I dodged the tree in this scan a bit, which helped.
