Practice Crash at Silverstone WSBK

[mrgubby]

I was in the middle of changing the settings on my 30D when I heard a noise on the straight to my left , quickly turned and started hitting the shutter button.

I was twisting , the aperture is wrong & I didn't have the shutter set to auto repeat so other than that I think the majority came out not to bad.

Shots are full frame & nothing done besides a resize.

Hmm , flying bike

Great sequence of action, at least it wasn't a real crash:lol:

Hope the rider is O/K though.

They look a lot better at full size , may have to get them printed as series for the wall :)

My son took this one with my old 300D / 18-55 kit lens , the guy must have been :bang: :bonk: :bat:
