Hi All, Well was a wet and wild weekend but mangaged to get out inbetween showers and hail stones to get 600+ shots off over the weekend. Was cold and a bit wendy but i was surprised on the amount of people that braved the weather and came out into the wet and cold, place was packed. Anyhow a few pics for you motoheads like me.
Cheers

John,

Amazing shots esp, 1 and 2. The panning in 2 is awesome. I assume you used a tripod for alll the shots?

Cheers

Mike whats that? Tripod, well i never use 1 all my shots are hand held and the tripod i have i got off onyx and isnt light and wouldn't even think about trying to lug that around. I have a monopod as well that i dont use often, i find it easier to handhold and have freedom of movement.

Even more impressive...I was wondering how a tripod would go in that terrain :shock:

You have my sympathies BBJ, just looking at the pics and imagining how muddy the event would have been. Fantastic captures! I can almost taste the dirt. ;)

John,

Some more of your superb work. You certainly have the Nikon 80-400VR and Sigma 70-200 working well.

Shot #1 does it for me :)
