2012 SpeedShots Phototgraphy thread

[asp125]

Once again, SpeedShots will be out at the races this season.

My photos will be available within a week following a race weekend.
http://speedshots.zenfolio.com

I will post links to each weekend's race in this thread.

Prices will be for out of camera photos with minimal cropping etc. Shoot me an email via the site or pm if you need any custom work. I'd be happy to quote rates for sponsor photos, brochures, large prints etc.

Thanks

MRA#2 - PPIR (Sat 5/19)
The high banks of PPIR played host to the MRA this weekend. Mother nature threw in some challenging wind and rain showers on Saturday, but we had another sucessful day of elbow to elbow racing.

MRA#5 - HPR (Sat 7/28 )
High Plains Raceway was invaded by 37 new riders in SuperStreet! So many that it required a 3 wave start - a first for the program. If nothing else, this speaks to the success of Superstreet and the tireless dedication of the MRA regular racer / instructors in supporting the series. Give yourselves a much appreciated round of applause!

MRA#6 - HPR (Sat 8/25)
Round 6 saw racers contesting the north course again. After a crash filled NovU the rest of the day saw shortened sprint races and another great superstreet grid. Highlight of the day was a fun filled bicycle race and silent auction for one of MRA's riders.

MRA#2 - PPIR Sat 5.19

All races posted in second thread.
Thanks workers, for braving the wind all day saturday.

[Slo]

Just wanted to throw this out there..... These photographers are out there all day, sweating, getting burnt, eaten by bugs, thirsty, hungry, etc. All of this to take pics of us, something we can use/see and have the rest of our lives.

Lets support these people and actually "buy" the pictures we like. The money they make doing this, is definitely not worth the time they put in, let alone the equipment they use.

[asp125]

Thanks for the plug, Jay.

2nd post update with MRA round 3 pics (more to come)

Those of you on Facebook might want to visit my page http://www.facebook.com/pages/SpeedShots-Photography/315351725208231

And for the rest of the 2012 season, if I feature your photo on my Facebook page, send me a message and I will email you a high res (screen sized) digital copy for FREE!

Due to the fires in Ft Collins and Colorado Springs, SpeedShots Photography will be donating all sales proceeds from MRA round 4 at Pueblo to the Colorado Professional Firefighters Foundation. These men and women put their lives on the line to save our forests and homes.

WHEW! What a scorcher at PMP last weekend! Second post being updated with Round 4 photos.

You guys of all classes have the most to gain from seeing pics of yourselves. Glad the pics are not only great looking, but useful in refining your riding too.

[aspenbum]

Order placed!! Thanks, you really got a bunch of good one's of me :D
