Greetings from Critique Club!

Congratulations on good score on this one. This is a nice photo ans it well executed though there are some minor "technical" flaws which need to be worked upon -

- Though there is motion blur in photo, its the "panning" which dominates it
- As pointed in one of the comments, Noice is real killer here. I dont know if you could have done any better with ISO 1600

Its still a nice photo which deserved good score. I did not voted for this challenge but would have given this one score of 6, which is closer to its avarage score.

I checked your portfolio and found "Sleeping Beauty" to be exceptional. Its a great capture which is well executed. Looking forward to more photos from you.

Have a nice day!
-Tej

The blur of the calf adds to the background and wheel blurs to add to the sense of motion here - evocative. And the slight uphill angle to the road plays nicely to the title of the shot.

Nice capture! My one complaint is that there is a fair bit of noise throughout, really visible on the biker's shirt and shorts.

Nice capture. Try to get in closer to the subject and it'll have greater impact.

Great subject! The compostion is made much better by the blurred background.
