This past weekend I had another fun trials event. I wish I rode as good as I took pictures, but it is all fun. Great weather and great photo subjects.

I forced myself to use the big gun 80-200 2.8 as practice for supercross next weekend. I learned a lot about the 3d tracking feature on my D90 and it is a good tool for shooting at f2.8. After getting used to the distance I needed to be for this lens to work, I found it was a good thing. People didn't know they were getting their picture taken. You could also get many shots of different things in different areas from one location.

Other than a few minor crops these are as shot with no PP at all.

    Amazin' what riders can do on a trials bike. You should put the video capabilities of the D90 to work and show us the aftermath of some of those acrobatics !! I, too, have the 80-200 f/2.8 and need to get out more... guess I better start following the trials events in my area. Great shots. Thanks for posting.
