Challenge: Celebration (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Canon PowerShot G6
Location: Seguin Texas Rodeo and Fair

 I slowed down the shutter speed and used a tripod to capture this photo of extreme motion in focus. Unfortunately, I saw this site on a friends computer and some photos looked more pale than on my computer so I thought my calibration on my mac might be different than on others PC's so I oversaturated it a bit.

Oh, in response to someone's comment, I cropped it on purpose because it looks much better cropped.

Wow, looks like fun. The colors seem a bit off but that could be my monitor. Sure wish you caught more of the wheel on this one.

lots of noise, pity..

Perfectly composed, how you managed to get only a fraction of movement in that low light is remarkable.

Good work at freezing the motion, difficult to do given the lighting conditions. I definitely would clone out that circle near center left

I like your concept, I just think with a bit better overall image quality (it looks quite grainy and oddly colored in the blues) it could score better.

this image has major noise in it. the crop is a bit awkward to say the least. is that the moon or a dust speck to the middle left of the image?

A bit grainy unfortunately.

nicely composed shot of people having a good time. the image appears to be quite grainy, probably because of the night shot. i wonder how this would have looked opening up your shutter and stopping down your apeture (hope i got that right!) to get a longer-exposed action shot, with all the cool colors.

Too much noise

I believe the image colors are oversaturated. I like the capture but I am not sure how to improve this image.
