I'm just a noob here so I thought I'd post some shots of my last trip to the motocross track. C&C is always welcome!

...last one. This guy was incredibly fast and really turned on the speed when he saw me with my camera.

2nd and 3rd are better. You got their front. If you could some passing in the corners or shots where two racers are next to each other that adds some drama to the images, show the competition.

Thanks for the feedback. It was a practice session when I shot these, so the guys were pretty spread out from each other. I agree on getting the faces (especially the eyes) in the shots as well. I just really liked the body positioning in the first one. He was really wrestling it through the turn!

Nice shots. I do not know if you are trying to sell your photos or not but have found that the berm and jump shots sell better than group shots. Try to work on the inside shots of corners and jumps. Not allways as a close crop but with the dirt in the air as the last one. :thumb

Now are you accusing an MXer of showing off??? :wink :wink
Nice job for a practice day, makes me really want to get out to the track! Thanks for sharing :D

Very good images, I agree, 2 and 3 are the best. #1 would be too good also, if you didn't cut the back tire.

Nice shots. I prefer the "coming at you" pictures.
