Nice work despite the weather. And I like the last one, it has a funky "shot through a frosted glass" look.

Nice shots. If the weather was that bad, I would have packed up my gear. Any concerns with shooting the 40D in the snow?

I hope it's next owner concern :D Snow is not too bad at all if weather is cold enought, but today rain also everything between water and snow. I try to cover camera best as i could but it was a bit wet anyway, still works fine. AF was confuse of heavy showrain, few round 0 shot in focus :D

I think i need to move 1D :D

Lovely images Petris ... especially the 1st one, though I'd probably clone out the guy with the misssing head ;)

They're good! I like them a lot. But I always thought you Finns were mad! :lol:
And racing in those conditions just confirms it.

Nice shots though... even the "arty" one. I'd be proud of them.

cheers

Wow great shots! They portray the conditions well.

Nice shots. Clone out the guy on BG on #1 and it would make a great poster.
#1 and 2 are good looking panning shots
