gotta love DH. one of the last pro-sports where Joe-shmoe can still get pretty close the action (I hope they haven't ruined it yet).

some good grabs. It's always a struggle with DH bikes to balance capturing the speed and a good clean/sharp image at the same time.

Yeah have been trying to keep shutter speeds down..... but keep the riders sharp!

THANKS Arvan

I didn't really see any XC. I had to shoot road images so that took away from mountain time. I will post some road shots up also....
