Number 1 is a good photo also except a wanker in the centre of the frame dressed in red spoils a good shot of a great bike. Seriously though considering the distance you are from these type of action shots some great results. I've found a 200mm lens is again not sufficent to capture events such as these. Used a 200 at Phillip Island in 2006 and got some great shots but not outstanding. Luckily with dedicated racing circuits the fencing is not such an issue unlike the Clipsal and more so at the "Honda/Lexmark/Whatever sponser it is this year" Indy on the Gold Coast. Anyways hang in there and keep the motorsport pics coming.
Re Stoner - "Just because his parents fooled around on Australian soil doesn't mean I have to like him"
Go Vermeulen !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The safety fences at Clipsal et. al. shit me to tears, but you gotta put up with it and deal with what you got really.
Agree with you about the can in the first pic, i did pick up on it too, but it would be worse behind the Rizla Suzuki being almost the same colour.....
As for Stoner, having always been a Ducati boy, and hearing about this Stoner kid a while back ive always supported him, but that Vermulen guy really can ride to!! So im finding myself some Vermulen and Stoner gear for my trip to show my support for the pair, throw them both on the Duc's and it could be a fun season!!!
