Horse racing

Today I made my first attempt at horse racing.My 7D and 70-200 f4 IS performed very well,took about 200 pics and maybe 5-6 were out of focus.I did a little cropping in the photos,probably could have done a better job in the post processing area,but overall happy considering it was my 1st try.......

Yep.....You are correct,that was the 3rd time I've been there,this time I decided to bring the camera,Thanks!

like last one best, it's very good

You did a great job! Where were you shooting from? How did you get that close to the track?

Thanks,I shot them about 10 feet away from the track,when the horses were far away I used my lens at 200mm and adjusted it to 70mm as they approached me.The track had a nice platform at the corner of turn one for photographers that luckly wasn't very crowded.
