Here are a for straight out of the camera form this past weekend. I have not had time to go through them all and do any tweaking, but I am not sure I really have to do anything from the looks of it.

I will post more as I get through them.

The nice typical Maladin speeding by.

Some nice pics, my fav is the downhill S's

Were these taken in spectator areas?
Ive ridden there once but never attended an event, trying to keep notes of accessability of different venues.

Steve -

Nice shots.
Can you assist me in what a ballpark shutter is good to use for keeping the motion like you did?

Nice, what lens are you using? I am going to Birmingham, Al with a friend in a couple weeks for a track day he is running on his bike. I am going to take pictures. I have an XTi with 28-135 IS and a 75-300 lens I will be using.

craig - Shot #1 was 120th. Panning I judge how fast the bikes/cars are going. Usually take a few sequence high speed shots at different speeds varying between 50th-200th of a sec. Start shooting early and let her rip till a few past the shot/angle you are wanting. usually the shots in between are good and the first couple and last couple are off. Hope this helps some. If you have any more questions I will try to help all i can.

nboland - All the shots I took that day are from a 70-200 2.8 and a 200-400 f4...
