Great photo, Yasir! Very good timing, to catch him just before spearing the target. You've done well to catch the horseman at full gallop and still get a clear, sharply defined photo. Regards,
Ryno

This looks fantastic, the power and speed of the horse is well captured. Looks like a scene from rambo 3. Keep it up! Gilbert

Hi Yasir,

Pretty well caught in plain action. The sharpness isn't optimum but you did fairly well here. I like the halo around them created by dust. You chose the right moment to click as their position is very expressive. You know, this shot makes le think of a movie scene..I don't know exactly why (maybe the 3:2 format).
Anyway, I think the pic' would gain in intensity if cropped on both sides, putting the characters on the left side. It would emphasize their action.

TFS,
Pris.
