Essex Country Show 2015

[Parsen66]

The annual country show took place over the weekend. Along I was dragged , armed with camera to capture the stunt cycle team Bolddog Lings. A great display put on for the huge crowd in not very good conditions, as you will see from the 18% grey sky .

Here's a pick of the loads I rattled off with my new'ish 70-200F2.8

nice set Alan and not a fake tan in sight

I would be tempted to convert the sky shots to B/W and push the contrast to make the bikes really stand out and pull lots of detail out

Well aint you funny

I really didn't know what to do with the sky, considered replacing it but obviously didn't. Good shout re mono, I'll have a look

Great action shots Alan.
