Well, it was Adelaide Motorshow v This; decided to come to this today. Great weather, great chance to get some use out of a newly acquired 300/4L and pretty pleased with the results. C&C would be appreciated :wink:

Looks like you made the right choice. You've got some great shots in your gallery. The 300/4L looks like a nice lens (for a Ca*on :D ). But are you now going to sort through the other 500 shots :?:

Really not cut out as a patient post processing sort of guy so I think I'll stop at ~100 odd shots for web. :lol: After a while, they all start to look the same unless you know your Motocross

Ronnie, very nice pics and well came up good sometime i have trouble where there is too much dust as lens focuses on the dust at times. Looked at you site pics and all look good well done.
Cheers

Thanks John,
The dust also really eats the contrast (and finds its way into all the gaps in your gear...). Challenging at times but rewarded with improved technique.
