Village Creek Turkey Bowl - 12/29/07
Posted: Sat Dec 29, 2007 4:40 pm
I went back out to Village Creek MX track today to shoot a good friend of mine, Aaron Remkus #914, on his new Kawasaki 450. I went out there thinking it was just going to be a practice day, but it turned out that they were actually racing today! Got a ton of shots of Aaron, and a few others, too.
The sun was very bright today which gave me the idea of trying for a silhouette shot. Let me know what you think. I did some levels adjustments because the rider wasn't quite dark enough. Not sure how well the overall image works, though.

Here are a couple of the beginning of a race. I was laying on the ground by the track in order to get this perspective. I wanted to get some of the action of the riders, but I also wanted to get some of the dirt getting kicked up behind them.

Here are a few more of Aaron working through some of the turns.

Finally, just a couple of other shots from one of the races.
