FMX @ Waterfest 2006

This is a similiar shot I took compared to the previous one.

But the colors are different cos I pumped up the saturation, contrast and reduced the greens through curves to make the picture more reddish.

Which do you prefer?

Hmm I'm not sure. The stunt is better in this one, but I prefer the arrangement of people in the other pic.

Thanks guys

@David: I totally agree about the better stunts and the poorer arrangements of the human heads in both pictures..just can't get the best of both worlds i guess.

And i totally like to remove the handphone sticking out of the head. Hehe

Great sky, nice crisp action shot at night but I find the arrangement of people a little bit off (although I like that you can see the blue of the cameraphone screen) and the motorcycle rider to be a little low in the frame.

I think I like the more natural colors better, as in the other one, but the trick on this one is more impressive and eye-catching as a silhouette :-)

This is just GREAT! I don't see why people are so cranky sometimes. I guess if you are looking for perfection, this isn't "PERFECT" but I mean really, I like the VIBE in this photo.
