Re: Moto Cross

Great set Fogey, the first shot "start" is missing though.
My fave is no 5.
Love the leap and bokeh, with the other rider still in view.

Re: Moto Cross

Great set Fogey.

My favourite is the one with the two bikes airborne in the same shot, closely followed by the very next shot (the first general shot) with the single rider taken head on, which would look great cropped and in black and white I reckon.

Nikon D70
Nikon AF-S VR 70-200mm F2.8G

Re: Moto Cross

Thank you Phil - appreciated.

Getting these riders in frame was a real challenge as they passed us at something like 50mph, and tested my panning skills to the limit.

I can't tell you how many went into the re-cycle bin missing either the head of the rider or the wheels of the bike. I took something like 500 shots on the day and half of those have been deleted.
