The AMA National Motocross Series visited Budds Creek, MD, this weekend. My dad and I attended Sunday. It was the first time either of us had seen a MX event first-hand. It was fun! :D

    Thank you. Center-weighted meter, shutter-priority (1/1250, I think), and probably some negative exp. comp. RAW files, with some mild tweaking in post. I wanted to separate the subject(s) from the background and it seems really quick shutter speeds don't detract from MX images the way they do from roadracing images.

    Very nice shots! I would have been great to run into someone else from the forum at the track last weekend. Are you coming back to the track for MXON in September?
