Santa Fe MTB Dirt Jumping

[newbie builder]

Recently took a trip to Santa Fe and got a chance to shoot some dirt jumpers--I've been wanting to shoot some bikers for a while now so it was great to spend an evening having a little fun. First shots are all natural light, but there are a few at the end where I used two SB800s to help light up the biker after the sun had set....
C&C would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Kinda funny store for the last one....about 2 runs before that I repositioned myself and suddenly my cheapo ebay triggers weren't firing my flashes anymore. I was so bummed out since it was the first time they hadn't worked, but then I looked on the back of the screen and realized that I could make a great silhouette shot out of that, so the last runs of the night I abandoned the strobes and just exposed for the sky--ended up with one of my favorite shots of the night that way(the last one)!

Thanks for the kind words.
These were some of the first images I edited after calibrating my monitor and I'm oh so glad that I calibrated it...I couldn't believe how far off the stuff I did before looked, but now things are much better.
