all pictures by http://cliftons-images.com

these images were captured of my 13 year old son racing an Aprilia RS125 by photographer & good friend, Clifton Mair. Not all circuits lend themselves to such opportunities and can be quite bland for the photographer.

I really like #1 - not sure why but it just works for me.
I bet they look great on your son's wall.

I'm not sure what lense Cliff was using. I do know he uses a Nikon D2X camera. Will ask Cliff about the lense

Which circuit? Knockhill?

I like number 1 as well, I think its because so much of it is dark in colour (almost black and white) but with the bike, kerb and grass in colour.

Yes, Knockhill
#1 is tipping into Duffus Dip
#2 is middle of the chicane
#3 is exiting Clarks

I've never been to Knockhill as its quite a trek from Norfolk, so was an educated guess...

Krikey! I thought I was nervous watching my boy defend a corner kick. Nice pictures, but I'd get nervous every time I looked at them if they were my boy.

He assures me he knows what he's doing:D besides, I'm on pit wall doing his board, I bend down adjust the board, stand up hang the board over the wall, bend down and adjust it again and so on, never get to see what actually happens:)
