I understand that you so burst mode on your camera. What I don't understand is how you so cleanly cut out the snowboarder. It's too bad there isn't a plugin or something for photoshop that would take two layers, look at the corresponding ixels on each layer, then say if they are at least 95% the same then it doesn't allow the top pixel to display. If they pixel is different, then the top pixel stays. That way you could just lay all the pcis in different layers, and it would automatically put the snowboard from each position, but erase or mask out the rest of each image. Make sense?
Excellent work. I'm very anti jet trail (because we almost never get it over here..drove me crazy in europe) so maybe i would have cloned it out myself.
Thanks for all the compliments on the shots. That was a blast to shoot. As far as the questions go: 30D shoots 5fps. As far as doing sequences they are not that hard. Just takes a little patience. And for RPPhoto here are a couple from skier pipe practice.
Havent had time to get the rest posted yet. I will get some more up soon.
Gk
PS Just got back from houston supercross and got some decent shots there. Have to edit them this week also. Arrrgggghhh.

I've been lurkng for a few days and you've earned my first post! These shots are great. I've been waiting for it to snow so that I can do a sequence like this of my son snowboarding (he's only nine so not quite as much action as yours). Anyway, love the shots!
