Clear pic, nice colors, but nothing special, nothing action...

i'm no photographer, but i'm surprised this is a winner... seems kinda saturated to me, not enough contrast in the background, or too dark... and there's a rider back there too, which takes away from the true race feel.. I'd have to guess it's a practice run

Fun7yn How people put "I'm Not Photographer" but then go ahead and critique the foto anyway, when they have no clue about photography... this coming from their words, not mine.....

They're right though... there were a lot of better pictures in your album and other peoples albums but the diablow poster boy has to win right?

Dave... Great work! Don't let the prepubescent whiners detract from your hard work and dedication. It's hilarious when certain people don't win, at anything, they contrive conspiracy theories.

Keep it up man!

Now i am a photographer,
and when i look at my photos and critique them, i try to look at them fomr an average persons POV, so like not looking at all the technical stuff, just the overall photo. because your photo will be looked at more by average people them photographers. so i know why people are complaning about all the technical stuff like satuation and stuff.

ahh i dont think that made much sence, its hard to explain what im trying to say

I totally agree with Jeff, when I look at my photos, I always end up over critiquing my own work, when non-photographers look at them, they don't notice the things i notice until I point them out. I don't think the photo above is over saturated... or saturated at all. You can get an image like that if you shoot with high-end equipment and expose the shot correctly. From what I saw, your shot was the most technical and well exposed.. good job and congrats on winning
