A couple of shots from a course I was instructing at on Friday. These shots were taken during the last session with a low sun. I did not have time to get to a different corner for better lighting so had to make do.

Not easy getting the sense of motion and keeping the shot sharp.

Kit lens @ 70mm, iso 500, shutter priority @1/350.

It was a tight corner that opened up behind me, so they could have been looking past me. They should have been looking at the road as one of the building blocks of the course is vision.

Craig,

Nice shots, especially the Dunlop. Tell him to go harder, there's still an inch of rubber he needs to scrub.

We had the Salary Package guys in here last week, the bloke told me I couldn't salary package a new bike only a cage ( not his word ). Discrimination against motorbike riders, some ATO rule blar, blar.

Loved the Gixxer and Viffer.

Cheers.

The Dunlop and Diablo were mine, and I love my chicken strips. Iam too old and stiff to get decent lean angles on the VTR. Front was a new qualifier, great grip, lifted the back once and run me off line.
