Description Original title: HoleShot, thought FUNnel was cooler

First turn after the start, it got pretty scary.

I am looking to improve my editing so any comments about it (and the photo of course) are really appreciated, tried to work with a stronger level of saturation unlike some of my latest works.

The part that made the photo stand out to me was all the different lean angles.

A kawasaki out front. Blasphemy!

KTM FTW!

You found a great spot to be in to capture this image. Depth of field is nice and its sharp. Shutter speed is good. Fast enough to stop the action but just slow enough to keep the tires spinning to give that look of movement.

However I am a little more of a purist when it comes to the saturation of colors. When i first saw the image the first thought that came to mind was "Holy saturation!" I'd take it down a little bit.

Cheers

Yeah it was a nice spot, a bit risky but worth it.

'bout the saturation i was kinda experimenting, if you see any of the alter photos in my gallery you can see that editing is a bit different in each one. I do liked this one like over saturated, i did a really unsaturated version and it also do looks nice, but not quite, i guess it's really a subjective topic.

And well, i am a Kawasaki fan like since ever lol! But that was not the idea of the shot hehe

Thanks a lot for the feedback, really really really appreciated

Lovely stuff, Jorge. I think the oversaturation works really nicely to create an even higher level of drama to the image. It genuinely does look terrifying with all those bikes coming right towards you. Certainly got my attention...

The oversaturated look works here. It's not SO oversaturated that it looks weird. It looks really awesome the way it is.
