Great pics, with #4 being the best for me, for the rider's expressed concentration on his face, the sharpness of the pic and the DoF too. :)

Fantastic shots. 4 and 5 win it for me

Excellent shots Dave :thumbs:

Aye great shots Dave. First and last for me:)

#4 for me with its colour, composition, DoF and the subject, including his face. #1 and #5 are a bit eerie with the cemetery in the background, the IoM is a place for brave men to ride.

Out on a limb it seems, I'm going for #1, awesome image. Really shows how on the limit they are especially with the spray.

Nothing wrong with the others mind you, I just mouthed 'wow' when I saw the first one!

[bsmotorsport]

amazing set, they all look so aggresive with it! Very good pictures from a technical point of view also :thumbs:

[desantnik]

#1 and #5 really shout IOM to me!

That is scary, really scary!

Thanks folks for your comments...:)

I think I like #1 and #2 best..They sum up road racing more than anyone can describe...#2 especially as the crowd watching from the hedge behind just seem so relaxed !!!

Thanks again,

Dave
