For all the photo hounds out there, what are some of your favorite MX photos of all time that would stand out in black and white? Looking for a few things for the moto mancave and am starting with a print of this one from Roddy Macleod, classic Namur from not so long ago. I know FTE has a few choice ones I'll be after.

I'm not a photog, and the picture quality on this is very low, so please, if that offends you, close your eyes and scroll. But this photo make me stare at it in amazement.

Edited! Guess I should have pointed that out! Blush I have him working me up a price on a 30x20 of it that will look great right at the top of the stairs. What is your favorite out of all of your old school stuff?

I know this thread will get tons of old-school classics, but this photo just epitomizes TP. Garth Milan photo

That is pretty amazing. Way was the history of sidecar racing though? I was born in 85 and barely remember seeing highlights n TV from time to time but that's about it. I have to imagine that being the guy on the sidecar flying through the air in this pic must have been a rush.

This is one of my all time favorites taken by Fran Kuhn at Unadilla - Johnny O with perfect style launching a full on works Honda out of a loamy Undadilla corner!

Love both shots, classic gear & RD style, hauling and controling that uphill with perfect wheel spin.
I was also at Sears Point for that Trans AMA...Roger was smooth as ever. Although he went down pretty good in practice.
