38 degrees!!!! Its around 0 C in here :( and the snow is melting

#2 is really cool. Flash from behind makes the dust really visible and adds some speed feel. I dont really like #1 and 4 as the flashes are visible

I like the 2nd and 3rd. I'm not a fan of having the flashes in the image. Have you tried panning shots like this? It adds some nice motion to them.

Thanks for the comments guys!
I agree about the flashes, they don't look too good in the shots, i'll work on that one next time.

tadrscin: I usually do pan to get that blur, but I had to use high shutter speeds (so I unfortunately only got a tiny bit of blur) because it was soo bright and sunny. the flashes were constantly on full power.
