I am little nervous - but thought I would throw my hat into the ring for MX pictures! I have a couple National events coming up so today was practice day. Cool thing was that this was an off weekend so there was ALOT of the top Pros at the track! Here are a few from the Pro practice/race.

To all you magazine guys... Open to some C&C!!

Great Shots!!!

Clouds must of rolled in for pic #3.

Are you going to the Nationals race at GopherDunes next week?

Thanks for the comment! I am trying to decide about Gopher Dunes.. I have track access for the Ontario races - but next weekend is the Parts Canada Superbike race, and thats my excuse to rent a nice big lens!

As i mentioned, this was a great day at the track! Alot of the guys were there - just wish i could have stayed the whole day. I didnt get a chance to do any candids.

I will send youthe link to my rest of the gallery when its up.

I would crop the first two a little tighter, the second one especially.

I will give it a shot. I crop almost everything 8x10 to keep the ratio the same but i think i should be able to go tighter on these. I would have liked to be 3 steps to the left for the first one.

Finally got some track access again. Good deal Brennan. As for C&C,

#1 is just ok to me, just a flat pic, maybe if you would have gotten down on the ground and shot up it would have made it more exciting.

#2 is a pretty good pic, like other said, it could be cropped a bit more, but still good.

#3 I just don't care for. The lighting is less than desirable and the background is really bad. If you are going to shoot in an area that is busy like that, then you must shoot at F/2.8 so you have a shallow depth of field and the background gets blurred out more and isn't as distracting. Keep at it though brother

Now were talking! Great C&C!! I think i let my emotion get me on the first one, Great rider- great guy...And I liked the pic. I do have some others that are lower and show the eyes, i may post one to compare.

Interesting point on #3 - I have been shying away from shooting 2.8 as the shots looked to static.

As mentioned, i may post some others. Keep the C&C coming!
