Went and shot a few with Leland this AM. Got to walk the steep trail and shoot. He smacked his hand near the end so we didn't get to shoot any images from the bottom section. These are fast edits and on a junk computer so will have better versions on Tuesday!:cheers:

I like these. 7 is a bit over exposed, but it looks like you coped well with some pretty contrasty lighting conditions.

I think I like no.2 the best out of this set. Did you use a flash on this one?

Yes, I was wondering if you used fill flash on all of them?

Awesome shots; very cool!
I could never do that. I have this aversion to pain.

Nice comp...personally I would stop it down a bit so you could get some blur on the spokes to reflect action.

#4 and #7 look backfocused


#5 with the fill flash is my favorite nice work!
