#2: I would crop much tighter and get rid of a lot of the "dead" space at the bottom. I think you can lose a lot of it but still give the scene context
#3 and #4: For me shows the difference good lighting makes. In #3, the lighting is behind the rider so they have a fairly bland, low-contrast look. Whereas in #4, the rider really "pops", is a lot more vibrant and dynamic simply because the light is falling on his front side.
#6: Absolutely love this composition, the story. Beautiful.
#9: Nice work with this pan

1. Nice job capturing the moment in a nice shot. It could maybe be cropped just a little more...not sure.
2. I like the angle/concept here but this shot doesn't do it for me. Maybe it's the crop or the light, or the fact that I don't see much of her face. Maybe get lower to minimize the foreground in the frame but keep the cool foreground bokeh and also get a better angle on the face.
3. I actually like this shot! The action and composition work great but the immediate impression is from the backlighting. Just a touch of fill flash might have made a difference. Good job with a tricky exposure here in any case.
4-5. Nice solid shots
6. Epic. Love this light, composition, story, all of it.
7. Girtty CX looks great in BW. Good one.
8-10. Solid shots with different looks. Love the smile on 10...the facial expressions on the riders make for my favorite CX shots.
11-12. These aren't working for me, personally. The remounts can be impressive but it's hard to capture the skill and athleticism that a smooth remount after a climb or barrier requires. It doesn't help that the riders are usually not looking up. The riders might like these captures though.
13. Good one.
