Great shots, Mao. I can see now why you won't give up the camera. It looks like you were pretty close to the action. Where was this? Woodbine? Which lens did you use to get these?

Good colors.

Thanks for sharing.

Hey Mao, great set, I love the look of determination on the Jockey's faces. Colours are wonderful. Your plan to go to Woodbine sure was a good one.

Thank you all. Still have a lot to learn.

Harvey they were all shot with the 100-400mmL IS. You know how rainy and murky it was on Sunday but the camera and lens pulled through for me!

Really nice work and excellent pano crops. I would have considered a bump in ISO to raise the shutter and really nail the sharpess on those tight crops. Overall very good stuff.

Oh sweet! I am liking these shots. Great action series here!

Now this looks like something that would be really fun to shoot! Really like #5, 6, 7 but agree with Joe. A bit more shutter and they'd be really sharp. Great job on the cropping, too. An interesting presentation.
