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.

Our yearly trip to Road America was once again a blast. There is always something special about the smell of the race track, the roar of the engines, and the sound of the camera on high speed shutter. As each year comes and goes, I always try to concentrate on on getting that shutter speed down to give that fore and background blur showing the most amount of motion.

MFBA Rally @ Road America
In the summer time, there is nothing better than spending a day at the track. Too bad its not summer yet. It was a cool Saturday morning, however once the cars hit the track no one worried about the weather. The day warmed up nicely, and walking the track always helps. I’m used to being at Road America for races during the summer, so attending the MFBA Rally was a first to see actual street approved cars running the track. Here are a few of my favorites from the day. You can see the entire album here.
