Hey all.
Just joined up and thought I would introduce myself and show some of my work.
I do a lot of off road ridding in my free time as well as shoot for various motor sport clients.
Since the addition of twins to our family, I find I have very little time to explore new directions in my photography. I hope viewing all the great photography here at dgrin will inspire me to start playing around again :thumb
Here are a few pics from recent rides and jobs.

    WOW!!!clap.gif Nice work! I love how each shot tells a story!!! The one with all the mud & water is just awesome - hope you made it out dry!HA! The first one with the handlebars - i did one similar for a buddy from his racebike so during the winter he could look at it, it was he wallpaper on his desktop!!

    Stick around - I look forward to seeing more!!! Only problem now... I wanna go riding!!

    Yep! TE450
    First Husky I have owned and I love it! I have always been an off road guy, but as I have gotten older I have really enjoyed the adventure of dual sporting, and the Husky is perfect for it.
    Opens up so much new area to ride, and great places to photograph.

    Gotta love the NW single trackthumb.gif

    Thanks!
    I shot those images with a few different cameras.
    I used a Canon G9 for a few of the trail pics, and there are also some shots from a Canon 5D and an old Canon 1D Mark 2.
    I like to pic the right camera to match the plan for the day.
    Quick and easy = G9
    Fast action = Mark 2
    Low light or wide angle = 5D

    Those are all really beautiful shots. Any tips on making those forest exposures, you've really captured the richness of the colours there.

    Nice shots. I haven't seen many huskys but then again I ride motocross. For a while I think I was the only one in my district racing one. Unfortunately, it now collects dust because it needs so much work.
