Downhill Powerslides 1 Year, 9 Months ago Karma: 0
I've been humming and haaing over this shit for a bit now and it has really grown on me and I quite like it.

+
the combo of motion blur and stoppage
you can see his face
the trail of dust behind him
the rim light from the sun
you can see the foliage and the blue sky

-
the motion blur
he's pretty centred
it's very a point and shoot angle



What are your two cents?

I like the timing and dirt getting kicked up, but the angle is so static that it doesn't really help the action much. maybe closer and more from the front.

I think you've got most of it in your self crit (good work!) however those points are so poor the image really is suffering. The image is flat, no angular lines (road is hardly looking like a hill) etc.
