Nice capture. I don't follow downhill MTBing, but I've never seen a rider horizontal before. If your focus is the rider, then I would crop him tighter. My .02

Like the image. Yet agree...(If your focus is the rider, then I would crop him tighter).

I'd also crop to remove all the dead space on the right. It would improve the compositions greatly. NIce image and cropping is one of those easy fixes that can turn it into a reall gem.

thanks for the input. I didnt crop this image because I liked how the colour of the ferns at the rightside. But I do completely agree that cropping would definitely direct the focus onto the rider.
