WOOOOOOOOOW hadi!! First how are you my friend! Long time eh! Hopefully you are doing well and good. Now.. So glad to be the first on your postwork today.. I wanna tell you that this is really amazing capture.. I imagined that shot so still! Started from the head of that horse and the rider.. And kept imagining.. The motion bluss you added is nice touch tho. But i guess that shot by it self will rock more if it was clear with no filters.. I can tell what you wanted to do here.. But again, i won't use the motion blur but a trail blur with a wide open angle of 180 degrees. You know what i am talking about! And make it as a 2 sec long exposure then blend it about 50%. It is just an openion tho.. I really love the shot.. Either way.. But since you asked, what do we think and also for our honest feelings/critics. Here i am bro :) It is just an openion tho.. But my liking to this shot, honestly.. I love it.. Thank you and hope to see some more horses please.. I want a white one :) Have a nice weekend bro.. JOE

I love this shot! I can agree with what Fotografo_arg is saying about the blur should have been added to the horses head as well. Maybe not as much, but a little. Other than that i think its perfect. Oh...and it would have been swell if that girls hadnt been cut off by the forehead. #:O)

(OP and BZ) In action shots you have, basically, a moving subject against a still background. If you set a very high speed (1/1000) both are frozen. Using 1/250-1/125 and the camera still, you can see some movement on the subject and if you follow the movement of the subject you'll see a still subject against a moving background. I guess you know this but adding a motion blur in all the picture makes a moving subject against a moving background which makes a moved photo :[. In addition, you didn't blurred the horse's head so it's a bit strange that part of the horse is blurred and part not. I suggest leaving the blur on the background but mask the blur on the horse and it will look much better. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (RP and AZ) Edited: strange that now you can't make more than one comment in the same image. Now Zacko agrees with me "before" I wrote my comment :] Anyway Looks better now but for a more realistic effect you should change 2 things in the blur. 1) You are using a 40~45 angle, try changing it to the same angle as the horse directon (20~25). 2)Reduce the "distance" in the motion blur settings. This setting you used can only happen when following a very fast moving subject like a race car. OP and BZ: original post and before Zacko's comment RP and AZ: repost and after Zacko's comment

BEAUTIFUL ***** :~)
