Concentration Photo

Photographer’s Note

Final round of the ten pegging competition had some exciting events. All riders were competing hard for the target (in white on ground) that was hardly 2 inch wide to be pierced through at such a speed and that too riding a horse. The rider has to pierce the peg and carry 10 yards to get full score.

A very dramatic scene you post here, Yasir! Impressive closeup take, with very good shutter to stop the action, not too fast to freeze it all, but not to sloew to flur it too much...Good choice of sephia too!
TFS!

Pleassent to watch Yasir. Greatly captured moment. Very dynamic in a way. Pitty that riders face is bit shadowy (I can imagine determination on his face).

Hi Yassir
Fantastic photo, your PoV is perfect, the frontal image is quite dynamic and the compo including the peg and the horseman makes the whole scenne wonderful.
Well done
Filipe

Hola Yasir,

Excelente imagen de acción, buen enfoque a pesar de la dificultad, el blanco y negro realza la fuerza de los contrastes, enhorabuena.

Yasir,
A wonderful Shot!...Absolutely right shutter speed, imparting the right amount of DOF to bring the subject & his focus in view!...
The choice of Sepia is smart!.
Cheers,
Prem.
