Comment by robshookphoto:
is bedouins hacky sack?

great capture of an interesting model. Several things that i am noticing are:
artifacts (compression?) around the model and the trees,
centered subject,
strange, perhaps oversaturated colors around the bases of the palms,
and vignetting (dark corners)

The artifacts are strange looking and detract from the photo. You coud try resizng less, but i don't really know what went wrong without looking at your editing steps. I don't really think the centeredsubject works. Well, it works, but i think that it would work better a little bit to the right. the oversaturated colors may have been a result of too much post processing. The vignetting, though, works for me. it draws my eyes into the middle. Overall, wondrful combination of action and lanscape, and good luck with it. 9

Very clever and I really like the colours on the fly.

I think the blur makes it a good portrait, more getting rid of the background than incorporating it. It's a good shot.

Tighter crop may help. Good details of the fly tho.
