A curve concept is not well defined here; 10 nevertheless

Shear wow factors just for the crispness of focus alone, especially considering it's an action photo with the movement seemingly coming towards you. Nicely done overall!

Love to see humans get thrown about by animals they're trying to tame.

nice take on the challenge and a great shot technically. Hope your model wasn't hurt and the horse wasn't too stressed.

I also hope the voters don't think your interpretation is too figurative and not literal enough. If they don't you've got a ribbon on your hands :-)

got to be a 10 :-)

Too bad the rider couldn't have had less colorful clothes - - I think it distracts from what is happening. Great capture though!!

Maybe a stretch for the challenge but that is an EXCELLENT stop action.
