Making Progress

Hummer Season

I took some time to try my hand at shooting a few hummingbirds. I found that I need a long lens of 200mm or better to compress the background.

Always bring your Camera

I have my bicycle modified with a tripod head mounted on the handle bars and a small detachable camera case so I can do photography while out riding. On this particular ride across Grand Island I was passing through Buckhorn State Park when the skies turned ominous. I stopped and made this four shot pano.

On the Turf

Shooting from the stands gives the viewer an over all picture of the action. This particular shot shows the beautiful grounds of the Fort Erie Race Track.

Once you get your exposures correct, your backgrounds clear and your panning down, it takes a bit of luck to get a group of riders in the right positions for a good photo. This image captures the action of the races.
