[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I was telling you a couple of days ago that my friend Ludo is a rocket on a mountainbike... Here it is, even if it's not the best he can do... Mind his look: watching far beyond - and his legs: ready to cycle on.

Pal mal fait Dams.
L'aide d'un flash dans ce cas-ci aurait sans doute encore renforcé le sujet.
Beau travail !

Great action shot Dams! The composition with the trees works out great, although I would have rotated the image CCW, but after looking again...I noticed that you would have lost most of the trees on the left, so I like your cropping better :) He looks so focused.

De l'action encore. Cette photo est vraiment réussie, tout balance.

Wow. "I believe he can fly"
This guy is good. He lifted the bike without any kind of ramp or even a rock.
I used to do mountain biking when I was in Portugal and I miss that a lot. I would love to be the "4th biker trought Auvergne".
The photo is great but it could be a bit more shapr and there's something weird about that blue ariund the trees. Is that something you've done in post processing?
I've done a workshop to correct the lightning and that blue on the trees

Prety good action shot from a difficult angle. You've captured speed, determination and a non-blurred background. It is slightly spoilt by the blue tinge around the trees and its slightly blurred. Check out Davidao25's workshop, he's done a fine job in correcting these minor problems.

Hi Dams!

Crazy shot! Was he jumping just like that? Nice! We are a pair of bike lovers too...but it's mostly my boyfriend who does the jumps ;-) I prefer to stay with my wheels on the ground...for now =)

Kind greetz,

Natalia
