Ardersier Minimeet - mxfun and me

[dod]

First nice-ish day we've had for a long time, great light at times, then it clouded over. As mxfun said in his thread there have been loads of changes to the track lately, mostly good for the riders but they've demolished a lot of the vantage points for taking pics. So, anyway

Start em young

multiple incoming

form an orderly queue please

Look at the difference in the sky in this three, all at exactly the same position

Close up

A bit of HSS flash

ANd a bit of Slow 2nd curtain to finish

Great set dod. The multiple riders shot stands out for me. As does the third close-up with the blue sky. I'm in two minds whether it would look better with the second rider cropped out - that may well lose some impact though.

You must have got well spattered with mud being that close!

Close up and multiple incoming for me. Good shots alround though, looks like you 2 had a really good day out.

Ta for the comments folks

mxfun, the Ricky Mair type shots above were taken at the new hairpin bit just before they take the downhill jump back to the pits. You should have heard some of their comments on the way past

Aye Matt, we had a great day out, only thing that spoiled it was the price of the bacon rolls
