Lucky duck you!!!! You got to see the races up close! My eldest would love to see one of the races live - she loves horses.
The crop is good on this tilt for you have the horses mouth/nose lined up directly with the bottom left corner while Borel's tail end is lined up with the upper right corner. Diagonal lining of element placement is strong because of how you cropped this. However, that strength opens up a weakness in that you had to crop out the 'action' of the shot. The moving legs and the flying hair of the horses tail which would give the shot a strong sense of motion which would have further strengthened the sense of falling or rather rushing/racing 'downhill'. Cases like this I wish that it was possible to do both but the nature of the crop does not allow that:-( |

That's a lot of tilt - looks like he's going to fall off! Composition works OK though and the DOF isolates the jockey well. |

i really like your comp and the way you have his rear end pointing to the upper right diagonal of the frame. not your average horsey shot. |
