Hi,

Well firstly these images demonstrate that you can take a decent photo. They are generally well exposed and sharp. Good start. However there are other issues you might like to consider:
1. Can we see the faces? Of the 10 images I can only see 2 faces. Now I'm sure it's not easy to find a good spot, but to be honest that is one of the major challenges in sports photography - finding a spot and timing the shot to get a good photo.
2. Composition. Try to avoid putting the athlete in the centre of the image. The rule of thirds is a good starting point, as it adds more interest.
3. Try some panning. Image 2 could be really good if the shutter was slightly lower allowing the background to blur thus showing the speed.

Just some ideas.
 
Hi Anthony,thanks for your feedbacks.
1). Its a challenge to really show the full face while mine are mostly half face shown.
2). I will take note on the composition as i was using centre spot AF point and didn't cropped too much.
3). I didn't do panning shots because i thought it wasn't very suitable as the shutter speed need to be lower and the stunts pulled were in a split of a second and may result in motion blur shots. And also given the conditions,it seems quite impossible to go low on my shutter speed as my ISO and Aperture were pretty low due to strong sunlight.
