First time there and really enjoyed it, although the hill and the altitude beat me. Always hard for me the first time at a track to figure out where to be when and how to deal with the light. For sure better shooters than me will cough up some similar shots done better, but here's a few:

Thanks all. Let me be a little more clear, I am happy with my product, but the efficiency and high quality yield guys like Kardy/Simon/Gibby and others is something else, who are generating a thousand or two images a weekend at least, turned around quickly, is something else again.

The Bagget shot is awesome! Like the Seely one a lot- and it would be even better without the freeway sign (easy fix if need be).

What lens are you using for most of those? You just got the 1D, right?

Thanks Scottie, but let's put it in perspective: putting a tasty dish on the table doesn't make you a 4-star chef delivering 300 plates a night. The pace and production of the best guys is pretty impressive, and there are a lot of young guys doing terrific work with a ton of energy. So much is going on behind the curtains of the relatively few images that get public views. So, it's not false humility, just due credit given to the solid week in and week out shooters.

What size wallpapers are people looking for these days; I ran out some 1920/1080's last week.
