Boxed in

Day out on Saturday to find photos in six different categories for a camera club competition. I had an enjoyable time wondering around St Neots and certainly used the camera more than when I am just walking and have it with me. It is good to have a mission.

with the category of motion in mind, I ventured over to the local skate board park to see what activity I could find. Not my comfort zone, but at least, in desperation to catch the right moment, I found the burst function on my camera for the first time!

Great shot...I really like how you used the fencing in this. That the eye and nose is caught right in one of the squares is brilliant. Yay for burst mode and you for using it! Looking to hearing about/seeing the other categories (if you're doing those as well).

It's great that you are familiar with the new camera feature. Lovely capture.

[Babs]

Nice timing. You seem to be getting to grips with your new camera quite nicely.

[Phil Howcroft]

I like the framing and caged rider

[LManning (Laura)]

I love the view through the fence.

[Taffy]

You ended up with such a strong, clear action shot!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Good job! I like that precise moment of launching from the top which you captured here. And all those strong lines really add to the feeling he's just about to swoop down on the ramp.

Great capture

i like it

[Kathy A]

Nice shot, very well timed

[Caterina]

This is beautiful, Helen, so well timed. Fav

[Babs]

Of the three I like this one best. The other one at the top of the ramp has his head too close to the pole and the one of him at the bottom doesn't work for me. Definitely this one.

[Kathy A]

This is my favourite of the three and for the same reasons as Babs @onewing

@kjarn @onewing thanks for the feedback. It is much appreciated. Sometimes it is difficult to be objective about our own work - especially when time has been invested in trying to make an edit work but it isn't quite right.
