Picture of the Week 27.09.05

[Geoff]

Well this week there were a couple of photos which I had in mind and this one did it for me:



Congratulations to John (BBJ)! I thought that the clarity and colours of this image were great and it is an interesting shot too with the dirt spitting out the back of the bike, very well captured! A very earthy shot! For the original thread visit here. Well done BBJ!

Well done BBJ, Well picked Geoff

[stubbsy]

Great choice - congratulations John. Another great example of why POTW makes sense since I missed this little beauty the first time around.

The dirt really makes this for me as it conveys a wonderful sense of action.

I missed the original post John but I can see why Geoff picked this image. I have said this before but I will reiterate: your pics have grown in stature in the past year and this particular pic epitomises your craftsmanship - well deserved POTW:D

[Nnnnsic]

Glen liked it so much, he said so twice!

Congrats John! Great shot!

[BBJ]

Thank you Geoff and All, my first time too with POW so i am rapped. I dont mind doing this sort of action if the wind is going the right way, lucky for me i didn't get too dirty, but make great shots.
Thanks

Great shot - motorsports photos usually don't grab me that much, but this one does.

Great shot John. I liked the whole series you took.

Congrats John, and well deserved.

What those riders get up to is amazing, and the attitude those bikes display is truly scary. Another shot in your series had a bike in the air, while leaning over. Amazing !

Hehe...on reflection, number 43 seemed to figure in quite a few of your shots. He must have been the 'rider of the day' !

Cheers

Justin

This is an excellent pic from a bunch of extremely good dirt-bike pix.
Congrats John.

[BBJ]

that's the dirtiest POTW of them all, but it's a great capture, well done and congratulations!

A great shot - oh Big Bad one...

Caught just at the right moment...

I missed this the first time round as well, so thanks to Geoff for picking it...
