Good idea to shoot this in black&white, light and composition idea are good. It seems however a bit unbalanced - what is the main focus, the horse or the lady? Focus is at the moment on the horse, but perhaps you wanted the woman to be the main focus in this image.

Thanks for the feedback Alfred. I wasn't trying to emphasize the horse or the model. The intent behind the image was to capture the fluid motion of the horse and rider in tandem. The model's features aren't as sharp as I'd like them to be, if that's what you're alluding to. I had the lens wide open as I wanted to isolate them both from the background, but the DOF was probably a little too shallow to get both her and the horse in sharp focus.

Something disturbing in this, not sure is it focus or too slow shutter.. Well, after reading your response to mr. Molon, i realized that it's not the easiest thing to shoot. Tried myself, with different subjects, and didn't get the other model sharp and other "moving", not even close..
After all, very nice composition, and like the tones.
