Not my usual thing but the rider in the picture is a friend from NZ who quit road racing, to go dirt racing.

I've got a few bodies but that was shot with my Olympus E-30, with my Olympus/Zuiko 50-200mm F2.8-3.5 SWD lens, at F4.5, 1/1600 sec, ISO 800.

I had a tough time figuring out which pic from my trip to throw in here. I guess I'll go with the Toronto skyline, even though it's overcast and not a very bright pic. I thought about using the windfarm pic because it's brighter, but decided on Toronto since I traveled so far just to get the pic. :idk:

Photoshoot last weekend for his sponsors - he's making the trip this week to Indy to race in the USGPRU Moriwalki 250 race.

He's the www.taichimoto.com kid Woo!

I'm just bummed that I cut part of his helmet off in this shot. I otherwise love the shot

Yeah, that sucks, but still a good shot. If you have trouble tracking your subject, and have a high MPix camera, just shoot wider and crop to the shot you want. It took me a long time to be able to nail the composition that I want and I STILL miss sometimes.

Closest I've been to church on a Sunday in a loooong time...

It's a very cool little chapel nestled in the NC mountains - built by/for a lady diagnosed w/ terminal cancer, who went into remission & went on to live another decade or so.

EDIT: That's the better one...

I've been trying like hell to figure out where that shot was taken. Somewhere along Jarvis or Sherbourne?

*EDIT* Ah, got it! Lower Sherbourne Street.

You weren't very far from a really good lakefront view of the city. You should check it out, if you're ever able to make it here again. It's towards the end of Cherry Street, just a couple of streets east of where you took that one.

To be honest, I had no idea where I was in the city. Was just out riding around looking for places to snap a pic. :lol: really wish it was a brighter day.
