Couple for now...I'll have some stuff to get off elsewhere and so I'll share some before I get outta the door to Fontana on Thursday...

My pedometer told me I walked a total of 24 miles this weekend...

    Very nice (as usual), Andrew. thumb.gif

    I was there myself this weekend and will be sharing some of my results as soon as I can get 'em edited and uploaded. I'd love to get your feedback. :D Barber presents some obvious compositional opportunities but in other ways it's a hard place to work, at least from my side of the fences.

    It was great finally meeting you, Andrew! I think I walked those same 24 miles, if not more, looking for decent angles from OUTSIDE the fence:D

    I'll share a few of mine on a separate thread.

    Hey Alan!

    Likewise....but the thing is, if you can create compelling images from outside the fence, then the only way is up!! thumb.gif

    Andrew, that first one is a great shot. What gets me is the lighting and the
    DOF. The lighting isolates the rider and the curve ever so nicely.
