Hold On To Your Hats - Theme

The theme this week is speed. These shots are of the barrel races I posted last Mon/Tue and some of the riders I didn't get to post. These are all after the last barrel as they raced to the line. Sometimes, I didn't think they were going to stop in time, they were flying!

I made a bonehead mistake with these. While I was waiting, I went into the barn and took the shots from Saturday's post. If you'll recall, I bumped the ISO up to 1600 since the barn was so dark. Thinking "don't forget to change it back". Well, I rushed back out to catch the barrel races and just started shooting. And yep, I forgot to change it back in the excitement! Doh!

So these are grainy and I felt that they looked better in b&w because the color didn't look that great. Except the last two. #9 did not convert to b&w very well. And #10 was from the same set as last week with proper ISO 400.

P.S. I turned comments back on for now. Thank you for the messages of support on Sunday. Please know that I miss visiting your blogs and will try to get back to them soon. :)
