Thank you!

I like the two guys shaking hands in mid-flight.

Don't know if people missed it or not but there is a link in that first post to more pics.

Re: Motocross action at Grattan- Sunday

As discussed at Grattan, your 1D would benefit from +1/3 or even +2/3 EC when using Tv or Av modes.

Otherwise, great shots with good action.
If you ever feel like shooting every moto on a hot summer day (from 9 - 6), and ensuring you get 6-15 shots of each rider (most events are 300-500 riders; some races we cover balloon to ~800), just jump on 95 south for about seven hours!

No photoshop. He was just looking to see if anyone was behind him while he waited to land.

I'll definately keep that in mind!

I figured that had to be the case, but for some reason when I looked at the bikes in the background they looked to be going the other direction. Thought maybe you'd played a bit. Yeah, I know, old eyeballs...

Re: Motocross action at Grattan- Sunday

That's actually why I cropped that shot the way I did. The guys in the background are on a different section of the track. I thought it looked kinda neat....like he was looking at them (he wasn't - but it looks that way.)
