Freestyle Moto Cross

Last week the Showtime FMX freestyle moto cross team performed at the Gold Coast Motor Bike Expo. It was incredible what these guys could do on a motor bike. Check out a couple of images below.

Which are you?

A dog person or a cat person??? ME? I have always been a dog person. This was recently reinforced to me when we visited a friend with the most gorgeous Huskies. Below are a few shots I took with my point and shoot.

Gold Coast Motor Bike Expo

This was a little personal project. I was attending the Gold Coast Motor Bike Expo to shoot the Show Time FMX demo (pics to come shortly). During a little free time I took a wonder round the show. I wanted to take some photos of my favourite bikes on display, the trick was figuring out how to do it in the middle of a busy expo floor. So here is what I did…

I used a monopod with a tribase to support the camera instead of a tripod, so as to avoid the possiblity of anyone tripping over my equipment. To this I mounted my trusty little D40 because of its native higher sync speed of 500th of a second. Looking back I could have used my d300 and used nikons high speed sync feature – have to try that next time.

I used a sb-800 with a honl snoot to control the spread of the flash. Then I shot 3-5 images of the bike making sure my camera settings (500th of a sec at f14) killed any ambient light meaning the only thing visible in the picture was the parts of the bike lit by the flash.

Finally when I got home I combined the 3-5 different frames into a single image. The results of which are below. I wish now I had taken an ambient exposure so you could see the environment these were shot in. Another thing to remember for next time.
