Went to the NASCAR races at Pocono Raceway last weekend. Spent most of Friday down on pit road, during practice and qualifying for Sprint Cup and Trucks, as well as the ARCA Series. I was back down there Saturday morning for Cup and Truck practice, and up in the stands for the afternoon Truck race, with Sunday reserved for the Cup race. Much of the time on pit road I was playing with panning shots, trying a few different things.

1 - Ryan Blaney practicing his truck.

2 - Austin Dillon, winner of Saturday's Truck race.

3 - That will leave a mark...

4 - Joey Logano

5 - Kyle Busch

6 - A different look...

7 - Aric Almirola driving for Richard Petty - it's a long way from the STP days!

8 - Jimmie Johnson gets repairs after blowing a tire and hitting the wall.

9 - Green flag to start the Cup race. I always try for a shot like this - I've been in the same seats for years. Some are more successful than others.

Thanks for looking!

    Nice work - crisp, vibrant images.
    What was the slowest ss when panning were you able to get a keeper? (slowest here was 1/125 which is preety good considering the speed of the cars)
    My opinion does not necessarily make it true. What you do with my opinion is entirely up to you.

    Nice action, good color too. I wish there were more "racing" photos though.
