I don't know what he's holding so I don't know if it meets the challenge or not... A 5 to be on the safe side...

Loool.
It̢۪s pretty much a straight out of the camera shot. I was about 600 feet away from the rider, and I was really trying to photograph the dust layers, which the horses stirred, being back light by the sun. So the order in the photograph goes like this (Sun then layers of dust then the rider then the last layer of dust that had received the darker shadow of the rider then 600 feet away the lens then me) Thanks. I love it too.
Thanks, I love it too

Fantastic picture, congratulations on your ribbon! I guess we're lucky the battery didn't give up earlier.

It took me a minute to figure out there was someone wearing that fabulous necklace. Very sharp and good selective desat.

Interesting effect; I like the motion but it does not appear to me that you avoided silhouetting your subject. I would probably crop at least a third more off the top to get rid of most of the glaring white and make the horse and rider a bigger part of the image.
