Very overexposed, but there's something I like about this despite that.

I like the b&w (high key?) treatment a lot. The biker on the left distracts me a bit, especially since the one on the right is so perfect. Nice job overall!

Now this I really like. Good work with the high key and awesome clarity.

I really like this. I like the washed out look around the subjects. 10

the background, which is not only blurred but blown, gives a sense of not just motion but a certain ecstasy that motorcycles must provide, or why else would anyone ride such a dangerous beast?

Would have more impact if flipped, so tehy ride from left to right. Nice though.

I really think this is well done. It is a bit washed out for my liking, but I can see where you were going with the concept. Very nice.

Love the high key, works wonders for this!

a little bright, perhaps dimming it down or a less exposed picture would have brought out more details in the backround being blurred.

Oh, if they were both in focus it would be so perfect... Still has its magic, 7.

Excellent shot... I am pretty sure you will be one of the ribbons ;)

I really like this. I have a feeling you are probably getting comments like "too white" and "too bright" but I really think the composition helps to focus the eyes directly to the second biker first and then lets you take in the motion blur.

Like the differential speed exhibited in the shot and the front/back subjects. Nice tones makes for simple easy viewing. 9.
