Awesome!

I love the colours in these shots...

And the motorbike pics are excellent. You really get a sense of the action with those!

Two thumbs up from me

Paul

P.S. Is that the 300 f2.8 VR?

hi bbj,

the 300mm rox

great shots !

Thanks all, still getting the hang of it but so far so good. Chi anytime mate, i am hoping i will get into the Moto GP with it next month and will try it out on some corners next week at the track again for a ride day in practice for 1st-2nd Oct for big race meeting here. Ok like i said no more walking around all day hand holding the gear as it is quiet heavy so monopod is getting a work out.

Alex would be good to get some shots like yours but, different track,conditions etc.. i am hoping we get a couple of nice sunny days instead of the rain we have been getting.

Love the eyes in the third shot

BBJ, nice work, lots of action in the motor bike shots

Posted: **Tue Sep 20, 2005 5:26 am**

The sharpness and clarity are excellent

Posted: **Tue Sep 20, 2005 11:09 am**

Good shots all, John. Love the perspective on the carts.

Posted: **Tue Sep 20, 2005 11:13 am**

Thanks kerry, and others. It is hard to make them look exciting and often they are not, but some good shots still. The 2nd shot of the bikes the young fellow actually came off and that was just the start of his fall, nothing major but made a good action shot.
Thanks
