Great catch! I do like the action you captured in this image. Colors are good, the bit of kicked up dirt helps give the feeling of action. I do wonder if you could crop some off of the top, give the BG more of a 2 color look. Thanks for sharing.

Ken,
Great timing, nice action shot. I agree with John, I think the top of the image is a bit distracting, but nice as it is.

You froze the action perfectly whilst maintaining a good composition
