Frell. That's some panning job!
Unbelievable clarity, just where it's needed, on the horses head. Kudos on an awesome piece of sports photography.

NIce shot here... wonderful panning job! I'm a horseback rider so I really appreciate this shot, not only because of how clear botht eh rider and the horse aare... but the horses and riders stances as well. Only thing I might say is I would have wanted to see a tad more definition in the pants... What level is she riding at? What height here? Definitely gives the thinking of "speed" Love it. -9-

I am usually not a big fan of motion blur because so many use it when it does not enhance a shot. This on the other hand is very nearly perfect. Great focus on the subject. My only suggestion would be to maybe crop a little tighter on the left, but I understand why you didn't with the writing on the saddle blanket.

Other than wanting to see the whole horse, there's a lot to like about this shot--rider's correct position and their eyes both looking ahead, the intensity that both display, the motion blur. Must be an oxer from the horse's position? Great job.

I like this image a lot but unfortunately the back ground is a bit distracting (imho). I would have liked to seen that softened considerably to really bring focus on the fantastic dynamics between horse and rider. None-the-less, a fantastic capture. BOL 7

Nice capture of the jump and concentration of horse and rider. Looks like you were panning with the rider creating a nice motion blur of the background. Like the cropping as well. Good Luck.

A great shot. Would have been even better if we could have some space infront of her...
