Here are a few pictures taken during the Tinsley Park Cyclocross Festival in Houston, TX. All these were taken with the Canon 30D + 10-22mm lens.

Here's a slideshow (external link) with music that includes a selection of photos from race day. C&C welcome.

5. Maybe too much tilt, but I still like it.

Really interesting angles and point of view used in this set. These stand out from others due to the creativity. I really like the skyline in the backdrop of image 1. Nice work.

Thank you John! #1 is also one of my favorites.

John: Thanks! I was shooting on high speed mode and after #6, the wheel hit the hood of the lens. Not a hard hit, but a warning that I was too close.

Thanks willard3! The perspective is thanks to the wide lens.

Excellent choice of lens. :) It gives you a completely different perspective. I'm going to have to get one!
