It's hard to tell how high he is,,,a bit more space on the bottom and less of a tight crop would make this feel more 'airy'. jmho.

Give a little more space all round this and it is good

good action shot, you just gotta hate it when nature grows a tree in the wrong spot

A nice action catch, but it seems a snapshot. A good snapshot, however.

Nice photo. Filling the frame like this may be too much as it sort of freezes the motion, rather then higlighting it . Perhaps zooming out and leaving some space on the right side or zooming in from a 3/4 angle would have added more motion or life.

The image is nice and sharp and the shot was well timed. However, the combination of the very tight crop, the border and the square format make the subject seem very crowded in the frame, unfortunately.

Well captured action shot, looks like he is riding the frame of the picture. But I think it focus deapth is to deep as the background is clearly visible. A larger aperature would have made the rider pop out more. The tree is also distracting when placed right behind the rider.

good capture focus and detail but in my opinion a little too tightly cropped.

imho your crop is so tight as to lose the action
