DH biking

Hi everyone

I went along to Hamsterley forest with my brother on Wednesday evening to take photo's. This has been my first try at this effect. I didn't know I was doing this effect so I forgot a tripod which made it very hard. I cut off his arm when editing so had to give him a new one . All in all I think it turned out quite well. Though next time I'll definitely use a tripod.

Good work without a tripod

Welcome to TP and onto the crit bit

I think the bikes are too close together i.e. the bikes are overlapping. If you look from left to right, Maybe 1st bike, 3rd and then 5th bike.

If you can up the shadows in post editing, rather than upping the exposure in post editing, it will show more detail of your brother without blowing out the sky and ruining the background, because I like the background with the dense amount of trees that you've caught.

Good on you for getting the shots I look forward to seeing more action shots like this !

Thanks Carl. Any idea how I put up the shadows? I'm using Gimp
