    Very big eyes indeed. :D

    All great shots, I didn't realize they did side car racing in BMX.
    I was shocked to see it in motox but thought it would be fun to try.

    Thanks for posting

    Holy smokes, These are all fantastic

    I can't figure out how you shot #3 though... Its hurting my head, Maybe 2 pics combined to create one composite? I can't figure out how you would have such a sharp subject (in decent lighting) With motion blur on both sides... and a uniform blur in the background...
    That or you have a very powerfull off camera strobe..

    BTW #3 is by far my favorite shot :)

    Thanks Lexicitus and Merry Christmas.
    No. 3 is a single image taken in late afternoon I believe. The rest was done in photoshop by isolating the rider, selecting an inverse of that selection and applying a blur filter to the background. Client's love this stuff and it definately increases print sales.
