    Number 1 is really cool. My only comment is that shots like that are difficult to sell because its difficult to determine who it is, and who to market it to. Number 2 needs less depth of field. What was the aperture?

    Thanks for the comments, I agree the second could have benefited from better DOF. The first image is my 'abstract' take on the race. This was my first time shooting moto and it definitely took some getting used to. I switched to more manual later in the day vs. shutter priority and that helped.

    Ok, that pic won't sell either (can't tell who it is) but who freaking cares? Nice pic. :)

    I like these. never shot motocross and there a pretty big one about 100 mi from here. Washougal, Wash. I like to take photo's I might like and if they sell, fine. If not, it's also fine.
