Ah! better - yes, I definitely like this better. This positioning also adds more movement - great find. Penny Street

Yep, I like this crop better because of the tree in the background. I'm not sure if this is what you were thinking of though.

Brave women....or crazy! Very colorful and with the blurry background, this does say "movement" to me. You could still crop on the left Tony, as you don't need the crowd on that side and it would make it appear that they had room to ride into on the right. :-) CJ

I tend to agree with this appearing visually static... however, these ladies are closer to the right side of the frame, so I just cannot crop with them in the lower left... here is a link to the original one:http://www.pbase.com/ctfchallenge/image/99166274 ... They are quite colorful though :)

The centered composition makes them visually static. Better if placed toward the left of the frame. I love the colors. d-tv

Looks much better now.

So here it is... I put the original in Pending... The subject is certainly more obvious, which is nice... but I can no longer hide behind the 10-22's distance. I do have to agree though, the one in pending leaves you wanting to see these folks a bit closer.

I wanted to retain the motion feel to the picture, but I'm going to play with this when I head home tonight and see what I can come up with :)

Right place at the right time for this one. I'd like to see more of your colorful subject with a tighter crop though. -COAmature
