I got this yesterday at a fox hunt in West Clare, the wether was pretty misty. Before anyone asks, no foxes were injured, I understand its been two years from a fox was caught, they are canny foxes in West Clare.
I would really appreciate feedback.

Bloody superb! One of the most dynamic hunt shots I've seen for a long time. As you've posted for critique, I'd maybe lighten a touch and add a little sharpening. But nothing else. Well Done!
Horse looks to be enjoying things as well, ears are well forward.
What a fantastic shot! shame the sun didn't come out to play but it's a fantastic image.
Love the energy, but I wouldn't have fancied standing where you were!
I remember one Boxing day one horse having to wait behind as a strirrup leather had broken, it couldn't wait to be off & was spinning round like a top.
Excellent shot indeed. My sister in law lives in Moveen so I know about the canny people and animals there! Perfect camera settings resulting in a really dynamic action shot from a great perspective. A little positive exposure compensation may have lightened the horse against the sky, however would also have slowed the shutter speed, requiring an ISO increase but its a small point.
Ive loaded a mod with the horse and rider a little lighter; sharpened a little more; and Ive cropped to bring the horse more to the right and a little lower to place them further from the edge of the frame on the left.
Hope you find this constructive,
regards
Willie
