    Motocross

    I went to The Lakeland USA Speedway for some late model racing, over the weekend. I arrived a little early and heard the sound of mortor cycles coming from a motocross facility next to the track.

    The lighting was poor and I probably had the shutter speed cranked up a little too much, but I thought the shots still turned out pretty nice.

    Very nice shots. Even with the gray skies they came out well. I agree the shutter speed may have been a touch high, but then again, they came out sharp and that's the important thing.

    My only advice, as a rider / having some MX photography experience, try to catch the riders more in the middle of jump, or coming out of a turn with roost flying. Other than that, these are great shots.
