 Mothers day drag races in Prescott MO. This bike was ridden by a rider nicknamed Trouble. I was standing near the Start line. This is my first attempt at high speed photography. Most of the bikes were reachings speeds between 120-140 mph. This was a bit more of a challenge than I was expecting. But I am most happy with the results. No flash was used, and was shot handheld.

The great speed implied triangle. Nice pan. Bump.

Great bit of Busa action :0) Nice blur in the wheels for that sense of movement.

a clever picture of a triangle? or a tenuous link with the challenge because you took a good picture of a motorbike pulling a wheelie?

Exactly...

Great action shot, but I'm missing the triangle. If it's there, it's too obscure (with 400+ pix, there's like time to stop to look) 6

Terrific action shot... lots of movement.... but the "triangle" theme is a stretch!

Nice high-speed pan shot. The triangle thing is a bit of a stretch though.
