This one makes the difference

Nice, but might have cropped it just a bit closer

the action itself is nice... the ladies are a bit dark and it would of been better to get them running at you and given them more running room into the picture and not out of it.

You're absolutely right, but I wasn't allowed to get any closer to the tracks. This one I shot with my 18-55mm lens from quite a distance. No, I'm not looking for excuses. I just have to part company with this silly habit of mine that has me uploading whatever picture fits a certain topic, regardless of its quality. Thanks anyhow.

I don't think its a problem with the proximity to the track or the lens.. they all seem to be fine.. when i shoot an event that i normally don't shoot, or have never shot, I get there early and scout out photo locations that will work for what I want. Just takes a lil practice and time... you will be fine, at least your trying... keep it up you will get there... can't get that award winner without trying. Keep shooting

Mighty kind of you. Thanks

Wow... most people don't have those in their houses!

Pls, come over I've got a whole bunch Not really

fine

beautiful composition

What an interesting take on the theme, such an intriguing image.

Thank you!

Very nice... I like the DOF and backlighting

Thanks! When I took this picture, I didn't even know what DOF stands for

I like the idea of this shot, light and framing are great, but the focused area is not sharp enough.

I would agree with that, if it were just a tad bit sharper it would definitely make for a stronger picture. Thanks for the advice
