The race, a photo from Punjab, North

Photographer's Note

Kila Raipur, a district close to Ludhiana, Punjab; hosts village Olympics where local athletes and players come to compete.

What you see is a horse race, just 500 ms and they have to make it or break in short span. Not to miss the fact that there is no shoes, no saddle ...pure raw power, and passion of course.

This is an excellent shot where the moving rider is sharp and the BG is blurred, a lot of dynamics in your photo, very well caught

Hello Ajay,
excellent the snapshot with the riders during the horse race and especially this with the blue costume to lay claim to the victory.
Excellent presentation of the moment.

Hi Rai

good attempt to give the impression of speed, but the standing man in the back is destroying the purity of your shot, being too present and stopping the horses behaviour
I propose you a WS to correct it
Cheers

Hi Ajay
It's a great stage to capture the action and the horses are in good position as well. Excellent clarity and timing with good out of focus background putting more emphasis on the subject matters really well. It's always lovely to see the rider and his horse creating such a stunning colour separation there! Lovely shot and tfs, Congrats
Best wishes

Hi Ajay!

A superb sports action shot and capturing superbly the expression of determination on the rider's face. Good motion blur of the horses legs and excellent sharpness of the rest of the image. Nice orange blue color contrasts. Tfs.
