Tick VG.

Well done on your PB AND Fifth place.

Sharp focus and a real sense of movement make the shot and it captures 'Bicycle' brilliantly.

Even though you used a Canon I still gave it a 10.

First, congrats on the new PB and more congrats on a top 5 (neat little star thingie!) and a great score. Second, the more I see pics from Richmond Park, the more I think I need to jump on a train with my bike and head over there to ride. Love the title, too - very fitting for this shot.

Bob

Many congrats on both the PB and the 5th place.

This picture scores on so many levels, and if you know the cyclist I bet he would give his eye teeth for a framed version

Outstanding stuff

Jon

Nice example of panning with a really nice and uncluttered background colour - the stripe of the pale path within all the green works well. Nice one.

Perfect. Excellent sharpness, exposure, motion blur and punch. I gave it a 9.

I like the blur to this image, however it does look a little oversharpened.
