It seems like it's been forever, but it's really only been since last Halloween. What am I talking about you ask?:scratch Well motocross season started here in good old Illinois and I spent the day shooting at the track!:D Here is a shot of one of the little guys.

It was actually 50 degrees, only three days prior it was snowing! And now....I have a sunburn!

Don't worry, I get that all the time too....dialtone

I like the first shot, the second one needs some dirt flying up from the back from the lean angle that he has going on. Not sure if he was just posing for you or what.

Sometimes a brother just needs some love:lust

Thanks for the feed back.

A big roost from the quad would be nice, but the track was pretty tacky, still real wet from the snow 3-days prior, so there wasn't much roost available. He wasn't posing, he was flat out moving.

Thanks again!:D I feel better.

The first one is very well done, but I keep wishing you had taken one step tp the left so the background was cleaner. I always find it easy to notice this AFTER the image is on my computer, not when I am actually shooting. :wxwax

Me, I like how the color pops out of the brown background on the second one. Plus, it's a great action pose. More bokeh, please! :D

It does suck to come home and find something ugly in the background. it's not real easy finding a "clean" background at the track....but I keep trying!

Thanks for the feedback. :D

Bones....here is a roost shot from last season.
