White Helmets in action at Cromer.
The hot food stall behind looked well placed for this shot.

Great action shot! How about cropping out the foreground grass, concentrating more on the action part of the image?

Fantastic timing.
Best regards, John

Also when shooting try using a slower shutter speed and get some motion blur in there! Anything around or slightly below 1/125th...

That will also blur all the spokes in the wheels.

Still a great shot!

Excellent shot, agree with the tighter crop but not sure the motion blur is really necessary in this case as there is plenty of action going on anyway.

I think it would because then it would portray some movement! Plus with a slightly blurred back ground it will make the bike, ramp and the flames stand out more!
