What do you do when your kid is too small to get up on the bike? If you're her dad, you help her, of course.

I shot the Motocross and ATV races at Rocky Ridge this past weekend. I brought home tons of good stuff and will post some of the 'Big Boys' a bit later. In the meantime, I couldn't resist getting this post up. This kid was just too cute.

She can barely reach the height of dad's waist.

Dad lends a helping hand to get her up.

Great shots! I especially like how you can see her looking through her goggles in #6.

May I ask what gear you used to shoot those?


40D with Tamron 17-50MM f/2.8 & Canon 85MM f/1.8 & Canon 55-250MM f/4-5.6

Thanks a lot.

I shot these with my 1D Mark IV and 300 f/2.8L IS. The last shot was with my 24-70 f/2.8L.
