Barbarella
Barb Howe, Pilcarcitos CX, CA
Yes, I went goofball on the saturation, but it seemed appropriate what with Barb being all superhero here and crossing faster than a speeding plane.
I hate that I cut off her foot.

I know! Its so hard to be vigilant of the entire subject during cx. And the damn athletes just won't cooperate!

I love that you cropped the foot. Breaks up the sense of even space, and since it is already at an angle, it ADDS to the action of the photo. Gives it a sense of limitlessness which in this sport seems crucial to its dynamism. If you're gonna drag it into Photoshop, then I absolutely love the exciting colors. I am riveted and I root for Barb. It's like I am watching from inside a room. By cutting off the foot, it causes me to rush to the window sill to see the entire action. You do not need the foot in this one, Sabine.

Hurts my eyes. But I likes it :-) I wish you hadn't cropped that one foot. In CX photos, I like it when I can time the jump so both feet are clearly off the ground. Nice leg shot, too! I mean, if you like that kind of thing :-)
