They were with the Nikon Mount 150-500 + D700

No Rossi pics!!! (Huge Rossi fan here)

I had a giant smile when Pedrobot crashed in T5. (I see you're a Repsol fan)

Nice to see Stoner with a decent result, but he was unable to challenge Lorenzo. Nice pic of the Duc's crazy front spoiler thing to keep it from doing wheelies

I was rootin for Spies to fight Rossi for the podium until he went into T11 hot His 6th place finish didn't show his true pace at all.

Nice shots!

#4 has gained much of my interest.

1 - Cool, a little overexposed but thats the look your going for. Nice shot.

2 - Out of focus. Bin.

3 - A little soft but not bad. Still bin that one though.

4 - Argh! My eyes, tone down the contrast!!! Not nice IMO!

5 - The best processing, apply this to the others and your onto a winner, you've also got a sharp pan.


Sorry for being harsh, but hopefully it'll give you some ideas,

6.

I dont mind harsh, I welcome it. Only my 4th motorsports event shooting. I do find that the Sigma 150-500 is soft from about 375 and getting worse at 500mm. I was also trying to get the shutter speeds slower today. Practice practice practice! lol

Oh ya, and all shots here were handlheld. Next time ill try and pan with a monopod, maybe bring up the sharpness on the longend!
