A great sports photo not only captures the action, but also shows the focus of the athlete. Greg’s motocross photo is perfectly lit, with a little blur showing the motion of the tires. I love that you can look into the helmet and see how focused the athlete is. The orange uniform contrasts nicely with the dramatic blue clouds in the background, and the sun flare tops off a great image.
