Great action shot! The crisp B+W works well here.

Greetings from the Critique Club

First Impressions:

Was that this really doesn’t seem to meet the challenge.

Technical (Comp, lighting, color, focus):

The composition on this seems a bit cluttered, especially with all of the background elements. I would suggest trying to isolate your main subject a bit more to draw the eyes to it.

The lighting is a bit harsh, likely due to time of day and the high iso. I would suggest for this shot to drop the f-stop down around 5.6 or so to get some background blur and definitely lower your iso to 100, especially in bright daylight.

The focus is fine but as already mentioned I would drop the f-stop to get the background out of focus.

Challenge:

This shot really didn’t fit the challenge and that is likely why you received numerous 4 and lower votes.

Artistic/Emotion:

N/A

Summary:

If you are new to photography I would suggest reading up on the relation of aperture, shutter speed and iso. Also keep entering challenges, as that is how you will continue to grow. I hope to see more entries from you. If you look at some of the recent ribbon winners you will see that their first entries finished similar to yours.
