And it was well worth coming back, those are absolute crackers and have to be one of the best sets ive ever seen on here. Number three is my favourite. Got another 6 you could upload?

Very nice set! Care to share gear used for some of these shots? I really like the contrast and color of all of them. Great processing.

yes, that last one was perfect framing for the set.

Man these are exceptional! What lens's did you use for this shoot? I saw your gear list but obviously you really only have room for one ultra telephoto lens moving around an event like this.

I usually attend the MotoGP and WSBK here in Aus when they are on but haven't been to one since I've started shooting so hoping to learn lots from people like you before I visit my next one.

Thank you, you are very kind. I have paired things down quite a lot and took 2 bodies and 3 lenses to Sonoma; 400, 70-200 and 24-105. I shoot for the track so I have access which helps but there are plenty of opportunity there for folks without photo creds.

Great sets Rob and great seeing you at Infineon!

Still going through mine....I just haven't had the time. Now also have ALMS to go through! LOL!

The shot of Danny throwing the peace sign is awesome!
