Behind The Lens

Location

Northeast Dragway, not long after I picked up a camera. Bike racer. They are a whole different breed.

Time

Afternoon. Good light.

Lighting

Brilliant sun, no clouds. Perfect day.

Equipment

Pentax K30.

Inspiration

You don't see a helmet like this that often.

Editing

None

In my camera bag

Now my Pentax K3II. Wide angle lens and a zoom.

Feedback

Be quick. Things happen fast at the race track. But, look off track too. Lots of interesting things in the pits.
