It is so refreshing to see other shots from Bolsa than the ones I took, and excellent captures to boot
#7 is my personal favorite
We'll have to plan another trip back to Bolsa so I can at least try to emulate what I've witnessed here...:D
Great job William

Nice series William. Some great action pics here. Like the variety of realistic looking blues in the shots also. Are you using a Canon now?

Thanks Jeff, I too had a good time, and I like your #6 caption...Just a little itch. Just remember if I don't get to go next time there won't be any snacks.

Thank you very much, I'm glad you like them. I began with the D70, D70s, and now I am using the D200 with a 300MM f/4. Both of which I am very pleased.
