You know Rog, I think this was at Majura, as Stromlo was still burnt out, it was the 24 hour in 2005, and this was at the bottom of the switchbacks down near the camp site.

Excellent capture of the emotions Mike,like the panning on this one also the excellent blur to show speed.

Great action and that's an understatement! Beautiful colors and I can feel his heart beating (probably very fast!) Very well done Mike!

Unfortunately I do not have a lot of experience in that field.. Are you using digital or film? with digital you will be needing to be wary of the white balance settings, I don't know how bright the sets will be, but if you have a light meter that will help you, and going by my camera, it sucks up a lot of juice with the flash, so I think a flash gun (with its own batteries) mounted on top would be very useful too.. as for apertures, the books say f8.0 and f9.5 are good for DOF in portrature, but i get the feeling you might be moving and taking shots of movement? There are some great photographers of fashion on this site, dare I say check out some of the well lit shots on the nude and fashion site, the photographers that post there will be able to help you I am sure.

Thanks larry, I have been practising for the last year on flying ducks, geese, eagles and well, pretty much anything that moves...
I found with this one I had to prefocus, and follow and wait til he dropped into sharpness, so I picked an area of ground in front that was the same distance and panned and followed him all the way in, I managed to get quite a few great shots like this, some were still a tad blurry, but this one was one of the better ones.
