Slowly but surely, getting through some of the images I shot last weekend at the GP, Nicky being one of my favorite riders, is one of the first to have been worked on.

Nice job on that one. Howd you get that angle without falling on him? :))

I don't know if I'd rather be the guy riding the bike or the guy taking the picture, both would be AWESOME!

HAHA, I was trying to jump on his back to go for ride!
O.k jokes aside, I didn't have any special access, but in this particular turn the fence and the public walking path,were set higher than the track, and I had 70-200 mm with an 1.4 extender for added reach, that would get me pretty close, or at least it seems like it.

Awesome pictures.

Is that at turn 9? Rainey Corner?

Thanks!
Yes, that's turn 9, I think that's one of the fastest corners in the track, so they have a pretty good lean angle when they go by.
