Boat Racing
Boat racing at Taree today - this one's my favourite so far....
A couple more here 
http://sheepie.smugmug.com/gallery/358900 First real chance I've had to try my hand at Motorsports since getting the D70 - used to take heaps of pics at speedway, etc. Will have to keep an eye out for these things next time they're at Taree and make sure I get a good spot *** When getting there is half the fun! ***
Hey Sheepie, got to love them Hydro's as a old boat racer when i was younger these pics bring back memories. I think they are great mate you have done well to capture them in such great colour. Well i have just got home from the track and 300 pics to process.

You really travel up & down the coast a bit don't you? As well as the shot here (which is great) I also like the 3rd shot on SmugMug with all that spray Peter

Yeah - thought abour calling in to say Hi at about 6am on Friday morning! We come up here on average about once every six weeks or so - is an easy trip from Sydney, and nice and relaxing. One of these days I'll come and have a look around Newie on the way.  *** When getting there is half the fun! ***
6 o'clock  - in the morning - is the sun up?
OMG what @$#$ time did you leave Sydney (I'm thinking about 5) - I guess the Easter traffic would have been light. Me - I arose at the respectable hour of 10 am Friday morning. BTW feel free to call in when your in town - just give me a ring first and give me time to wake up  Peter

Yip - about then, same as today, just about to leave now (about 5:45am). Was surprisingly busy leaving Sydney - we normally go in the afternoon after work, if we can get out b4 the peak, but this time decided to leave it until the morning. Wasn't too bad, but as I said, was busier than I expected. Thanks for the comments Mudder - you'll appreciate I didn't have a great deal to do with picking the colours, they were contrasting anyway 
I remember from my film days the difficulties of fast moving targets, and am happy with my first attempts at motorsport with the D70. Will try again any opportunity I get *** When getting there is half the fun! ***
