great subject, wish you had timed your shutter better. the stride position you caught just doesn't look that great.

Well caught. For a horse though I prefer a panning shot at slower shutter speed to catch the vigour of the movement. Frozen, they can sometimes look a little gangly unless at full tilt with all legs off the ground and mud kicked up. Crop is bit tight, but I find that the 640 pixel contsraint can sometimes make one go for an unnatural crop just to get detail.

This was one of my 10s in this challenge. I think it is such a fun shot and so very well taken. It's a shame that it didn't finish higher but even so, I'm really glad I got the chance to see it.

Rick, this soooo deserved a better score! Maybe your wife was right about the title...but the clarity and light and the frozen action and expressions...a wonderful shot you should be proud of

I mentioned this shot to my wife, her feeling was it should have been entitled Thelma and Louise......

another perspective.

Great job! Deserves technical merit. An outstanding action shot, they look like they are hanging in mid-air. The shadows behind them on the rock adds alot to the photo. However, a water shot, or even a shoreline shot, does not always mean 'beach' in my opinion. And meeting the challenge, to me, is the first and most important thing, if that isn't done, then anything else is unimportant. Doesn't mean it's not a beautiful and creative shot, because in this case, it absolutely is! I do love it! I went back and forth on how to score your pic, but I do vote low for those that I don't think meet the challenge, so to be consistant, I am voting this lower than I want for the reasons stated above.
