Thanks for comments ;-)

About this John Deere sponsored driver, he is 3rd Finnish driver in World Rally Championship-series this year. He won Pirelli Star Driver Shoot Out- competitions last year and got 6 races in group N- or Super 2000 car at world championships series 2009. . This guy called Jarkko Nikara.

And background why John Deere, JD bought finnish forestry machine brand Timberjack from Metso in 2000 and changed name to John Deere in 2005.

I agree #1 is little soft compared to your earlier shots. Good action tho.
#3 and 5 are my favs, excellent exposure with good action

Nice work again - I really like #2 and 3, also the angle and framing in #4 are great.

PS! Have fun with the new camera :)

Good shots 2,3 & 5 pick of the bunch. Well exposed with cracking colours and of course sharp. I'm sure the new 40d owner will be pleased if they can manage the same quality images. Nice work.

Excellent work as usual Petris, #2 and #3 are definitely the pick of the set for me. Love the compostion of #2 and the light hitting the snow in 3 is stunning.

Works here, saw it. Nice action, but the commentator wasn't keen on doing much more than calling out names :lol: Loved the bit when the Scooby driver tried too hard to flip the car before the turn and went off - it's good that he kept his foot down and crawled out from the snow.
