Doesn't Happen Every Day
Something that doesn’t happen to you every day – lucky enough to come across Brett Metcalfe – one of Australia’s (and Americas) fastest Motocross riders out riding with a few mates while taking a holiday back home in Mannum.
As you can see – horrible day – hot and dry – but was a great chance to try out a 400mm Sigma lens!
Brett is in with a better than good chance of taking out arguably the worlds toughest supercross series this year in America – we wish him all the best!
Straight out of the camera – Canon 400D 120/400mm Sigma – never going to be classes as a good shot, but the experience of trying to keep up was rewarding!!!
Thanks for the chance Steve!

This photograph sucks – or at least the fact that I couldn’t be there with you does!!!!!.... Metcalf…it doesn’t get any better than that and the photograph is actually very good, nice and crisp, a sense of motion and room for the viewer to feel the space he is moving into. Well done.
