    Aye Derek, I have the whole sequence, (it’s with Paul I.R. at mo so not posting the whole thing yet). focus goes off & on a bit as I was using my Manual focus lens but most of it fine!.
    :wink: :wink: :wink:

    talked to Johnny after & he was still well up for the rest of the day! (as he proved with his results!!) :)

    1st shot – Great Angle and colour, exposure, DoF and Focus are spot on
    2nd shot – The best of the bunch in my opinion, composition is simply perfect
    3rd shot – Like the angle, but doesn’t really work as well as the other two
    4th shot – Again a great shot, looks like the pilot is looking at the camera
    5th shot – Being in the right spot at the right time is half of the job done…
    6th shot – Like the 3rd shot it doesn’t stand out like the others although it is a very good shot
    7th shot – Simply perfect, the concentration that you can read from his eyes it’s amazing, the B&W conversion also makes this shot stand out, otherwise i think it would be lost in the colours of the helmet.

    in sum a very nice gallery of photos…

    Congratulations,

    Regards,

    Really good sharp shots Joe. I’m sure the “money” shots and the shots that the riders want are all apart from no. 2 but my favourite is no. 2 because all the rest are the type we see regularly but 2 is different. It conveys distance and speed.

    What gear are you using?

    Images 1, 5 & 6 were taken at the recent ‘Sunflower’ short circuit races Bishopscourt
    equipment = Nikon D200 + Tamron Sp300 f2.8 (man focus)

    The others were from earlier in the year with Nik D70 +
    image # 2 = Nikon 300 f4
    image # 3 = Nikon 18-70zoom (20mm)
    image # 4 = Nikon 80-200 f2.8
    image # 7 = Nikon 80-200 f2.8 (+SB600 flash iTTL)

    Many thanks for the comments everyone.
