Location
I was very fortunate to have this race - Staalwater MTB Challenge 2017 - in my street as part of the course. The riders were coming downhill from the mountain terrain very fast and had a slight turn before crossing onto the tar road and then down further.Time
Photo taken at around 10amLighting
Natural lighting as the sun was really bright early in the morning.Equipment
Nikon D60 with a 55 - 200mm zoom lens handheld.Inspiration
By accident I played with the settings and some of the photos I took came out like this. Only realised at a later stage what I did. I was still very novice level then.Editing
Not much. Did not knew much about Lightroom then and only did minor editing.In my camera bag
Right now I have my Canon camera, a kit lens + a zoom lens, lens adapter, monopod, Gimbal and accessories like battery, card, charger, cleaning pen.Feedback
Play around with settings more when taking action photos.
