Motorsport with a Pentax

The son of a friend of mine does motocross and bought his bike over to Spain for a couple of weeks so he could have a go on the Spanish circuits. They invited me along to the practice session so I thought it would be a good workout of the Sigma 70-200mm f2.8 I won on Ebay a few weeks ago.

A small selection.


























Edit : Adjust brightness on a couple.

Mike,

Looks like a GREAT lens for this kind of shoot!

And you've added action shots to your impressive list of expertise.

I'm starting to really dislike you!

Nice pics Mike ... Impressed ! Good job you are in Spain or I would have to watch by back !

Thanks

Thanks

Well I'm back for good in March, are you near retirement yet?

Seriously though, I really enjoyed doing these .. if you weren't so far away from me I would ask if I could tag along one day when I return.

Mike you would be more than welcome any time you are up my neck of the woods.

I plan to carry on shooting racing until someone has to hold me up and point me towards the circuit !!! Yes I love doing it that much.
