Nice capture and I like the way you fill the frame. I'm getting a bit of a greenish tint instead of sepia.

Lovely crisp image. I don't think the frame is necessary to be honest, especially as the tones in the frame don't match the tones in the image which have a slightly green hue rather than brown. I think the image stands on it's own. Very nicely done.

Very sharp (the veins of horse add to the image) and nicely composed!

Edit to add: ugh - your sepia has a greenish hue on my monitor. I must have something wrong here. Does yours have more of a brownish tint?

Hi .. well i have had so many color issues and finally i would hope to think that it appears to be ok so on my monitor it has a cross between sepia and black and white as some sepias tend to be on the yellow side so i preferred this toning.
Regarding the veins these are supremely fit thoroughbreds and they tend to be more pronounced after their races and is quite normal.

love the detail on the horse as well as the action. Also work in b&w for me.

Great shot - lot of dynamic tension left, even though the race is done...

Great shot. Incredible detail on a moving and no doubt rather distant target. I like the sepia.

Beautiful crispness in this shot, and whilst i am not a fan of sepia it suits this shot!

Great shot, I love the expression of the rider and horse. Amazing detail that lets us see the strength of the horse. I like the tones, but not crazy about the frame.
