Wow, incredible capture, this is my first time seeing it as I didn't get the chance to vote this time around though if I had the chance it would have gotten a ten from me! Congrats on your top ten finish!

Great capture. Normally it is very easy to get the flames hideously overexposed in relation to the rest of the frame.I like the way that the 'bike is level and that there are those trails of flame on the right of the frame.

Wow, what a picture, this is fantastic, you are taking this one just at the right moment and your handle of the fire is simply fantastic.

Great timing and subject, which you've considered and made a creative effort to meet the brief. Image looks a tad soft, but this is a definite contender.

Good timing and capture

This is a very good capture, I would have preferred a less tight crop showing the top of the burning hoop ( assuming that there is a burning top)

great capture, just not naturally framed, or natuRALLY?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Such a sweet shot, two improvements...
Would have enjoyed seeing the entire ring of fire
Would have enjoyed seeing your stuntman do this with no hands and on fire...
Still i enjoyed your photo enough to give it an 8.
