Very nice work. I think that it wouldn't look as good in color anyway. The framing is excellent.

Good composition with good stop action of the rider...the motion is caught in her surroundings...color is good and a pleasant diagonal caught as well

Wow... another person from PG?! Amazing how small a world it is here on the net. And yes... there are some REALLY great trails out there around Pidherny. This photo was taken at a race that was put on by some local enthusiasts who do a lot of the trail building out in that neck of the woods. And there has been a LOT of trail building going on out there this year, nearly doubling the amount of trail from last season. Lots of shore-style stunts and some frighteningly big drops.
I liked your riding shots, and I can sympathize with you about the scanner. I tried using mine to upload shots from as well, but have since resorted to just getting the negatives scanned at the time of developing. Its a few bucks a roll, but I think its worth it for the results.

Thanks very much for all the suggestions! I've come away with a couple different ideas as to how to approach a sequence like this as a result. Not much riding time left in the season this far north, but I'm off to Whistler for a biking trip over the long weekend. With any luck, I'll have a bunch of new stuff to upload after that. Thanks again for the kind comments and useful advice!

I can't give you any tips on techniques because I've never tried anything like this, but I really like the result! While I agree that having each shot of the biker progressively blur or fade away would look cool, I kind of like the shot as is, just because it looks so unique. It's all style preference, I suppose. You'll definitely have to do a lot of experimenting with this one.
My bone of contention with this photo isn't the biker. It's the background. This is a bit unfair because I know how hard it is to frame a moving target. But I find all the trees and people a bit overwhelming. Most of it can't be helped, but it would be nice to get a tighter shot of the biker - he kind of gets lost in everything else.
I definitely want to see more of these kinds of photos!

I took this into Photoshop and tried a few different crops but nothing seemed to jump out at me. This in camera framing that you have really makes the lily-pads and the colours stand out. The frog is a bit small, but there's nothing that you can do about that. I think you did a great job for what you had!

What stands out as awkard to me is that each shot of the rider is sooo vivid and clear. it might be nice to make the trailing shots faded a bit and keep the last one as solid. This way my eye won't be fighting to separate the images. a very cool sequence though... great first try!

I was reading your about and saw "pidherny" and thought... hey I used to ride there in prince george... this must be a different one. But, nope, you're from PG! I used to live there in 99... lots of great riding around. Love what you've done with this... the panning is nice to blur the bg... looks like a flash to freeze her in the frame?? Anyways, I'm off to check out your portfolio... I've got some riding/ stunt shots from Calgary if you want to check them out!

I think you've come out with a very good composite. The one thing I noticed is the presence of spokes in some frames, suggesting fast shutter (which we know it is) and the lack of spokes in other frames. The technique has got to be pretty time consuming, but maybe try getting rid of all the spokes, it will suggest wheel spin and be uniform. If they are all the same they will be less noticable.
