The horse races are a great place to take action pictures. Panning at the speed these riders pass by is a challenge.

belle impression de vitesse

Hi Roger,

This is a lovely capture, action shots are not easy as I have found with my running deer. I like the way that you have not captured all the horses head or all of the rider it adds to the picture, it gives more to the speed.

Great shot Roger! I love the sharpness and detail in this photo. We're you standing on the track?? LOL! Initially, I thought it would have been nice to see the entire face of the horse, but I've attempted these myself and it's no easy feat. I guess this horse won by a nose!

Well done! Lisa

I really like how you have composed and cropped this Roger. Perfect light to get this stunning detail. Lovley the colour and the shimmer to the jacket. Well done action shot.
Warm Regards

Hello Roger!
That's a capture that can set a standard of sportive documentary on TL. Fabulous achievement.

Hello Roger,
Fine dynamics, and the tight framing works well with me!
Sharp fine details in the jockey, a tad of motion blur in the horse... nice, well done!

Hi, Roger!

Velocity, impetus, beauty, harmony. Wooonderful!

jazmin

Fantastic photo! The jockey is perfectly clear & your cropping is perfect!

Wow Roger!
This one is amazing. Love the colors! And I really like how you captured the "feel" of the jockey's jacket. Also like how you got the Horse's eye and caught his own strong expression! tfs.
