Really interesting, well executed photo. Great light again.

A great perspective setting the rider against the darkened sky. I like your use of the wall on the left which acts like a pointer helping to lead the eyes of the viewer to the rider and the nature of the rider's pose but most of all I like the contrast between the rider and the ominous looking sky which works to bring a 3D feel to the composition.

The lighting certainly makes this special.

Very nice for me too. Very interesting, and surely great light!

I agree with everyone else. The lighting is spectacular, certainly in combination with that eerily remarkable, textured night sky. The composition is exceedingly well-balanced to boot, even despite the strange tractor thingamajig and the janky shadows of some unseen objects. Sometimes you just can't help what is included in the image, and sometimes the image is so strong that it doesn't really matter.

The suburb composure of this shot makes the fact that it is actually an action shot all the more stunning.

I love this photograph, action with a beautiful background. I like the truck in the background.

Mike, yes, that is my friend riding his fixed gear! They are much fun.
