a few of these look like the exposure is being fooled by the bright sky behind the subject.

you might try changing to centre weighted metering instead of multisegment.

but you would need to keep the subject centred whilst doing that. or perhaps take a few readings off the guy when he is stationary and use those for manual settings.

Is that the sun in the sky behind?? if so try taking them from the other side and the rider would be in light.

maybe use some flash?? nothing like blinding the rider and causing him to stack!! but seriously may help
Steve.

Looks like you are up to speed with posting images now too!!

I think 1 and 4 were with flash while 2 was from the other side. I'm just going in and shooting away maddly trying all sorts of different settings in my excitement with the new cam. Hopefully I'll settle down and start thinking my way through shots as I get a bit more familiar with the camera.
