Hehehe, you'll regret that :P

Odd red tinge which could be taken out in Photoshop. Could have done with a good burst of flash there, but cameras are often fooled by strong backlights.

Technically good. Lack any sense of drama, and background is distracting

Good, that half-shadow really shows how well dSLRs cope with shadow details. Light background and especially the little light circle bottom left is a touch distracting. Great sky though

Nice composition, especially with the take off, landing and riders looking on. Shame the rider's blurred though. Higher shutter speed next time...

Better, though still a touch soft.

Good timing, but the landscape format cuts off the takeoff and landing, unless you assume it's the bricks you can *just* see at the bottom, and those could be an inch off the ground. However...

This is much better. Good pose, great expression, and a much better sense of what he's riding at. Careful on your tweaking though, either he was very red faced, or the skin tones are starting to wander.

Too low shutter speed, and I still hate head-on photos.

Good. Nice bit of fill flash to illuminate the rider. Shame the sky was so featureless.

Hmm, I think there's more manipulation going on. Again, it's the skin tones that are giving it away. Could have been more dramatic if the camera was a bit lower.

Is he going up or down? Just can't tell...

Ahem.

Good timing, but I guess the light was failing, and the shutter speed was coming down.

This is good. The rider is sharp, but bits of the bike are blurred, giving a sense of motion. The rider in the background is a bit of a distraction though.

Good exposure, but I hate bum shots...

Bars covering the rider's eyes, and you can't see the landing. You need to learn how to play flash against shutter speed. Night shooting is a bit of a special skill on it's own.

Good tight shot of the rider, who really stands out. Good.
