Too small and not very crisp. Next time use the full size allowed.

Nice action shot! If it were cropped down to just the upper right hand corner guys it would be even better, to me.

If this photo had zeroed in on fewer or one blader I think it would have been more effective. Add some tension. I see this just as a sports shot as is.

If your camera will allow it, making the image bigger will help. This is a good image, good enough I'd like to see more of the details. More of the drama of the race.

You might want to consider cropping the narrow strip of sky out. To my eye, it seems a bit distracting rather than helpful. (Just my opinion.) Nice colours and DOF.

A uv filter, a different time of day, or even increasing contrast and saturation would help. A 4.

Not enough contrast across the landscape to make it interesting. It all blends together too much.

I think this has a lot of potential! I would like to see this at a different time of day, sunset or sunrise

Comment by moodville:
Wonderful colors and very nice scenery. From the angle it was taken it looks like little bumps in the ground and I think the magnificience that is undoubtly there just doesnt seem to come across as much in this particular image. For similar reasons I think it seems to be lacking a main focus point, esp since it looks like it was taken during harsh light and there is very little texture or light play to control the eye. Still, it's a nice image.

This just looks like a snapshot, though the expression you captured on the subject's face is interesting. Not much in the way of "choice" here, the picture is too static and looks posed. Seem to have some focus or pixelation issues as well.
