from a local desert race in Phx, az

I had a lucky moment between racers where there was no dust hanging

in the air and got this shot of a buddy near Lake Pleasent in AZ

A shot at the local track

1/125@ f5.6 iso 200 55mm

I hate the fact that I missed the feet, but I like the colors

My friends wife wanted a pic of him riding but wantes something

different . She liked it and its kind of grown on me too

young mans mom wanted something different .

my son at speedworld mx park in phx, az

a young guy havin fun at the mx track.

I liked this shot because you can see the concentration in his eyes

trying to shoot with the sun straight up at 2 pm

VERY, VERY NICE! Great capture !

I was trying to get a clear shot of the eyes

I was actually at a street bike show and didnt know there was going

to be a freestyle demo, wish I would have brough a faster lens

Yea , I have a lot of dues to pay to get on the floor but I hope to get there . Very hard to get credentials for sx even for the best in business. I much prefer the outdoors but glen helen is the nearest and only once a year ...want to got to unadilla and Washougal( I have raced in the worcs event there)

Not A fan of the rider :). Love the shot . Looks so easy and effortless when these guys do it !

P.S. hope to go to Budd's creek fot thr des nations!

Thanks , I appreciate that ! Hard to get perfect framing in reserved seating. I understand the pic might turn off some photographers that arent into racing

from the stands

I love to try to get different angles when i can

This was taken at the grand canyon on july 29,2006. I know thw

colors are not exactly true but its close and I liked it alot

This guy almost scared me, Its one of the first pics i did when i

started shooting racing

Sorry John, I just saw your question and I realize I should have included the lens used in the first place..canon 70-200 4.0L
