AMA Superbike Racing @ Road America

As summer begins, the track heats up. I was fresh off buying a new lens for myself, and this was the perfect spot to make its debut. Scott Machin and I left bright and early and immediately went to our favorite spot, turn #6 where I had a great spot as the riders were coming into the corner. Getting down to their level was the goal of the day, and having the longer reach of the 300mm lens made for a few great photos. There is a big difference between shooting cars and motorcycles. With the bikers moving into the corners, everything is moving. Getting a steady image while panning can be difficult, however using a solid monopod really helped.
