Doing it in the Dirt

[BBJ]

Hi All few shots from today. Was ok for awhile as after the rain we had had it wasn't too dusty. All shot with the 70-200 Sigma.


Bit of a long shot this one but gives you an idea how high some of the young fella's get.


Cheers

John,

The sharpness of your focus and colour never ceases to amaze me.

#3 - Wow - that's high...

Great action shots as usual BBJ...

[BBJ]

Thanks Alex and John, yes they do get high. I am amazed at the level of some of these lil kids, an old mate of mine's son is like 5 and hell he goes like the wind no Fear. i had 1 lil tacker come off where i was and he couldn't lif the bike up so i went over to him and helped him and do you know what he said? Not worried about his fall he said "Thats a nice camera" got back on his bike and off he went.
Was a good day.
Cheers

Wow John, the first couple in particular are so sharp You really know how to get these bike actions shots to really zing! Really like #1 with the crud flying...

Mate, you should be workin' for the bike mags...

I'm still fumbling to find another word instead of WOW!.......I can't so I'll just agree with everyone else. Great stuff!

You are the master of bike shots. You could make a living doing nothing but this.

[BBJ]

HAHAA MAtt, or is that i just cant find anything else to shoot.LOL Actually had a mate at track today trying his sidecar out i better process them for a look, but yeh bikes in my bloody sort off.
I wish i could make a living on this but yeh not likely.

[KerryPierce]

[BBJ]

Thanks Kerry, Chris yes well it works well and well took some 360+ shots so yeh, oneday i have to learn not to be so trigger happy.

Hi BBJ,

I will not post anymore photos of moving objects unless it is a racing snail.
I admire your talent and skill of taking these great shots.

Cheers

[BBJ]

Thanks Cd, well mate at least you dont have to worry about focus too much with a snail.LOL But doesnt matter how good i get you always get some that are no good, but thats life. Oneday i will find something else to shoot as i do like doing other things but this is one way to help fund things a bit. The D70 sure does get a good work out thats for sure.
Cheers

I always look forward to your shooting.

Very well done, you must be .

You have the Sigma 70-200 working as well as the Nikon 80-400VR.

Great shots. Amazingly crisp even with so much speed and movement.

These are as good if not better than others I have seen in bike magazines.
