CMRA - Motorcycle Race --- C&C
Visited Hallett Racetrack in Oklahoma last weekend with some fellow photogs from our local photog organization. Mission: shoot CMRA motorcycle road-races.
Whenever possible I tried working on my panning technique.
These guys (and gals) are fast. Panning can be a bit tricky but I think I captured a few worth keeping.
C&C always welcome (encouraged)

Numbers 3 and 4 I like quite a bit. Number 2 should never be shot with a shutter speed that high. 1/3000 a second? And holy smokes you look awfully close to the action there. 66mm focal length? I just have to ask, DO YOU HAVE A DEATH WISH?
Number 1 has a nice composition to it.

#2 - I agree, it was shot with my secondary camera. I walked down into that corner and decided to fire off a few but had my main camera set up with the 70-200 with a 1.7 tele on it so I reached for my second. I had my 24-70 on it and had it set to aperture priority at f/2.8. Since this was taken at high-noon, you know the result. But I liked it anyway.
Death-wish? No, I was behimd the safe-barrier ;-0
#1 - I like the comp also, and was hoping others would as well. Was trying to capture a bike or two in the background but never could get them in both locations at the same time. Maybe need to photoshop one in. lol
btw - I have raced my 350Z on Hallett several times. I love that track.
