Excellent shot Art. The title is very apt. Good out of focus background makes the "skier " pop.!   Posted: 07/13/2017 09:39:30



 
Oh, I love that outstreched tongue. Therefor the action is not lying on the board for me but on his face - see my added altered photo.   Posted: 07/23/2017 05:29:54

Well done Art. Looks like you had the perfect seat to capture such a shot. Your settings appear to be perfect and of course the title is spot on too.

It is really a great moment of the image captured! The correct settings make the object sharpen enough and blurry background. If there is more water splash coming out, It will show better result.   Posted: 07/26/2017 16:57:15

Excellent action image. I like the image the way it is posted, cutting the board would diminish, in my opinion, the dramatic concentration of the skier, making harder to quickly recognized the action. Well done job.   Posted: 07/26/2017 17:16:21

Good action shot. I can't help thinking that the landing impact is not going to go well for him.   Posted: 07/27/2017 20:27:48
