Did some more MX shooting over the weekend

Non-'puter stuff. Photography, hot rods, or tropical fish for example

Did some more MX shooting over the weekend

Post by XMENPorsche »

Went back out to my favorite local track on Sunday afternoon and shot the open practice that was running. Not a whole lot of riders, but a few of them were putting on a show.

This first set is a series of three that I caught of Tommy Miller as he was coming out of a berm. Man but that kid could kick up the rooster tails...

This next one was sold pretty much within an hour of me posting it. This guy calls me up and says, "I have GOT to buy that image! That's the only shot that I've ever seen with all 3 members of my team together!" So, I obliged him and sold him the image.

This one.... well, I just like the colors and composition.

Finally, I wanted to see what it looked like to have the dirt coming your way. A bit of a different perspective. (No, I didn't get any dirt on me. At least, not from these shots.)

I like trying to get in tight enough so that you can see the look in their eyes behind the goggles.

Gambino - wish you could've been out there with me. You'd have had a blast.

Looks like you had fun tho. Nice shots, and appreciate the commentary.

I'll be going again on Tuesday night. The track has open practice every Tuesday. Riders pay, spectators are free. If you're interested I'll be heading out by about 6 or so.

Tough for me to get home by then. Might meet you there sometime, though. Will call for directions if so.
