I went out for the second round of the CSRA Kawartha Cup held in Peterborough, Ontario. Great day, Great racing and MUCH warmer than Round #1!

Thanks for looking...

    Some great, colorful action images. I'm not a professional so you'll have to take these comments with a grain of salt.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

    I particularly like the first image. Although I would like to see just a little more space in front of the machine, I can only imagine how difficult it most be to shoot these images.<o:p></o:p>

    The house in the background of the 2nd image distracts me a bit and seems out of place in the image.<o:p></o:p>

    #3 is good but getting close to cutting of the riders head.<o:p></o:p>
    <o:p></o:p>
    #4 is a great action shot, flying snow, good color and composition.<o:p></o:p>

    Great captures!! The first one is just tack sharp and I really like the action of the 2nd one. Yes, the house may seem a bit odd in the picture, but you can't do much about where an event is placed. I like the shot a lot.

    Thanks for the comment, the track is surrounded by a residential area - so you're right - it couldnt be helped! I tried to get the crowd in all the shots but that corner wasnt possible.

    Definately a fun sport to watch! Amazing what they can do with a snowmobile!!
