Speed capture/exposure

[dbright007]

Hello
Couple questions here. Struggling a bit with cropping in too close vs leaving too much background - trying to strike a balance there and may have erred on too much background?
Also wondering what you see in the color/WB/exposure. Trying to find the balance their and wondering if it might be underexposed.
Thanks

Very good panning technique here. You've composed the image well while still maintaining good sharpness in the subject vehicle.

White balance looks a bit cool to me.

Exposure is probably correct, but the photo looks a bit low-contrast to me. I'd probably pull the tones apart a bit in post.

I see what you're saying about the subject being small relative to the frame, but I really like the background here, and I think it adds quite a bit to the photo. I don't think I'd crop much that you've included.

I like this piece quite a bit.
