Aperture: f3.5

 Hard to say. I learned how to adjust the ISO on the d200... Better results? Who knows. Faster shutter speeds? yes. I adjusted everything usual Sharpened cropped and adjusted black in the selective color for more contrast. I had the best spot for this mini bike stunt show and had been looking for an opportunity to shoot something like this for this theme. Prediction....talk about out on the limb but I think higher than a 4.8....

Nice framing and the clouds add a lot to appeal of this image.

For this challenge, I wish the bike and rider were silhouetted even more against the sky.

POSITIVES:
Interesting subject
Composition and POV
Lighting
Background detail

NEGATIVES:
No so much a negative but a little to much detail on the silhouette for my liking. But thats a personal opinion.

Nice shot, but it doesn't really look like a silhouette to me.

A great action shot but not particularly what I'd consider a silhouette, as the light is coming more from sort of in front of him than directly behind.
