Wow, you can feel the heat from the exhaust on the last Yamaha! :thumb

Yeah, the last photo is nice, but it would be nicer with the front wheel one inch above the ground... Nice photos!

Love the SV Prep one, what did you do to get it to look like that?

Hi, Bones. The clouds were already low, dark, and moody so I thought the image would benefit from slight dark vignetting which I applied within Adobe Camera Raw.

I suppose I could have moved to PS and played with curves for an even more dramatic cloud effect, but I tend to do only the very quickest adjustments when processing motorsport.

Very nice shots. :thumb Still jealous. The only motorcycle racing going on here is garage racing! (That's where you sit on your bike in the garage, and think about warm weather)

Today's weather Sunny and Cold (-9 with wind chills at -20). :huh

Here I go trying to implement Maczippy's advice :bowto develop my own unique style, and I get compliments on the same old knee-down-in-the-corner and blasting-down-the-straight shots. :rofl

But I still appreciate your comments, Gary. :)

And I will say, though, that a lot of the riders have told me that they like the brake markers image. And also the SV.

I've had a lot of fun perfecting my art. And even though I've shot only two events previous, I've benefited greatly from the feedback and discussion here. And I hope it shows.

Thanks!
