i shoot a bit of bmx for a few mags,

was wanting a crit from people who dont usually check out bmx shots.

this shot was taken with a d70s, kit lens, sb600 on a pw to the left of the shot.

its pretty old for me (was still using the kit lens!), but i really like it... really nice simple lighting... a lot of the time im using 3 or 4 flashes!

it does look good, would be better if it was a tighter crop imo

Tighter crop and cloning of sensor dust and this will be a much better shot :)

I keep looking at the back wheel for some reason :)
it's unaturally bright compared to the front and probably rest of the bike. As you mentioned, due to the light on the left. I think that light should've been frontlit rather than sidelit like that. Personally, I think this sort of sports photography is better when you go right into the action with a wide angle lens (and a helmet) :)

hope my critique makes sense :)
