Last sunday was a round of the Perth Mountain Biking Downhill, held on an orange orchid. The course is always fast with some big air time to be had.
They start off by zigzagging through low scrub before attacking 'the triples'

The third jump leads into a steep downhill which leads into a hard right turn over another small jump

and after a few more heavy duty twists and turns finishes off over a table top

The lighting was very overcast or very bright or both:dunno , which means alot of the sky was blown out and the rider very dark. I'll definitely be back when the conditions improve.
cheers for looking, comment or critique away.
May I take your picture?

    Nice shots but a bit too much DOF for me, open up the apperture wide open

    To be honest Gary, I didn't even think about DOF while I was shooting, but I definitely will in future.
    Cheers for the pointer thumb.gif
