A few more from when I was shooting the practice track a few weeks ago.

Enjoy!

And this little guy - couldn't have been more than 6 years old...and such a bitty body. He was running with da big dogs, and holding his own without any issue.

Enjoy!

Looks like you could need some fill flash to make the drivers face/eyes visible. Apart from that its some great shots!

Brands, he landed just fine. I missed some good shots because I tend to flinch when I think someone's going to crash (I've got to get over that!!)...but there weren't any crashes (thank goodness) and he landed fine. Several people were laying their bikes over on that jump, so I guess it's a skill.

Prox, that's the challenge - how to get their faces visible. I was about 40-50 feet away, using a 70-300 w/ polarizer, and shooting into the sun. So have you any suggestions for the next time? I'd love to be able to see their faces (if their visors aren't polarized...)

Thanks!
