Day at the Races

well today was my first big day out with the D300 and the Bigma on a mono pod...... both performed very well. Out of camera, no sharping, crop, convert to sRGB slight levels to brighten image for smugmug

I was shooting at various shutter speeds and panning but this is close to what I was trying to achieve..... blurred foreground and background, movement in the horses, but with the horse head, jockey or number sharper........ I will be going back to try this again....... but with the 120-300mm Sigma

You seem too have captured some atmosphere and some colour there Bernie - I like them

Very nice, you can feel the movement. My fav would be number two if you could clone out that post.
