Really nice photo Franco. Very colorful.

Steve, that is a great shot and I don't really have a big love for dogs. The composition, depth of field and emotion really make it a shot where one would look twice at.

With the arrival of the Easter bunny I always get excited because it is time for my yearly cross-event. Lots of cars, sprinters, buggies, motors, quads, noise, petrol and mud is what enters my viewfinder. Unfortunately the event went professional this year so blunt auto-cross and thus crashes where pretty much out of the question. It was almost Nascar on dirt Some motocrossers lining up before the start:


Something I had never seen before: A transformed combine race. 500HP+ that burned out 6 foot tractor wheels. Really cool


Because it was raining the entire monday and the photographers all got a little bored waiting. We decided to do a Strongman competition between track cleanings:

Nice shots, Jan. The guy "pushing" the tractor looks like Adrian Newey of Formula One fame.

Franco - Really nice colors on that. I love the colored bokeh above the flower.

Steve - You sure he is not looking for the cat.

Jan - The tractors are cool. Not much like a tractor anymore.

I was asked to shoot a Little League game ... one of my business partner's asked for images of his Son.

I had to push ISO to extreme to get fast shutter speeds but I was amazed how well it worked. I shot straight JPEG from the camera and used DPP to resize them for internet presentation.



1D MKIV
300mm f/2.8L IS USM Hand held
ISO 8000 (yes 8 thousand!)
f/2.8

Wow. I knew the 1D line was good at high ISO, but that's incredible. Nice shot, too.

Nice doggy portrait, Steve. I bet those dogs are anything but forsaken.

Nice shot, Franco. Nice bokeh and great color.

Sam, Very nice submissions, you really have a good eye for composition----if you are new at this I can't wait to see what you can do with experience.

Nice work.

Thanks! My wife actually has her bachelor's degree in Art and Design, so she has been giving me some composition lessons.
