Motocross riders

 

Motocross riders by Michael Fullana (Website | Instagram):

Intro:
After 30 years of commercial photography, a move to Central Florida, a son’s first dirt bike, and a passion for an extreme sport, were the factors that got me into Motocross Photography. After taking photos of my son on a motocross track for his first ride, I was immediately hooked. The grace, bike control, and finesse that the riders exhibit flying through the tracks is mesmerizing.

Coming today: Capture One webinar with Joe McNally


You have probably already noticed that Capture One recently introduced a new Nikon dedicated version (all C1 related blog posts can be found here). I also reported that our favorite Joe McNally is now also a Capture One ambassador.
