My previous high key entry was entitled "High key, low speed".... heh!
Hard to stop the motion of these guys, particularly in a curve, when they're right in front of you, at the wide end of the wide lens. Next time I'll crank the ISO, crank the shutter speed a bit. I did have it set to overexpose by a full stop. But I do like the motion. And I gotta tell you, this was a blast. A bit terrifying in this corner because they are coming right at you, but fun!
My 400th entry. This will not score well, isn't symbolic in any way, and isn't something I "normally" shoot. But I learned a lot from the outing and truly enjoyed the process. So I guess that's good enough for the 400th entry, yes? (Oh, and it is in B&W, there's that!)

Ah - checked the score. 5.1111 Here's hoping it hangs on to the five! Perhaps I should bitch about the voters and how they are dragging me down!
Heh! Nah. I'm very pleased with the photo just the same. Don't mind the score a bit!
Post challenge: Ah yes, back down where I belong in the sub-50% category. :-) |

| I didn't vote that challenge, but if I had, you know bike shots always appeal to me. Enjoyed your race shots posted on Facebook. |

| What? Seriously. Way better image than some that scored much higher. Sorry about the score, it's still a great shot. |

Great motion!
I may or may not be voting, so please do not equate my comment with any score. |
