Oh, that's a lovely lens you have there, Roz.
And a good crop of subjects, and, oh yes, a good eye and excellent post processing
skills.

Okay, you have a terrific action shot going here and room to play with the crop.
My suggestion (for what it's worth) is to give this athlete a little room to drive his vehicle (!). In other words, give him a bit more room to drive into and he won't look so penned in...

It's really great lighting and action. I like it a lot.

Yes, the crop, exchange of background, the enhanced color all add to the beauty of this flower.
Somehow, all the above and perhaps a little more, have given this flower some dimension or roundness that add to the work. I have a feeling this would look really good in a sort of dappled background using soft yellows, pinks and greens. (Sort of build your own bokeh) Just a thought, it's fine as is.

I couldn't help myself. This is what I mean -
