Experimental

I cast my picture for your critique, I like this but it's not conventional, perhaps better in colour.

Re: Experimental

Great action shot, good shutter speed, not sure about the crop. Strangely I don't mind the loss of the top of the riders head but clipping the end of the tail? Maybe crop right int the horses rump?

Re: Experimental

Thanks for commenting Bill, I need to hear what others think, it's a full frame so some creative cloning maybe required.
I'll try your suggested crop.

Re: Experimental

I'd crop off the riders head - (seriously ) - well justa thought

I really like this effect but the crop does stop it being a real winner (scuse the pun)

Re: Experimental

Hi Tim,

Love the quality of the conversion (looks HDR like?) and another example of good panning.

It is spoilt a bit by the cropping of the top of the head and the end of the tail. A more extreme crop may make it look like you meant it emoticon
