Mark's Ride

Mark’s Ride  Today was race day  at the Autobahn Country Club.  A friend, Mark, was racing.  Since I rarely get a chance to get images of racing cars, I tagged along.  The photog challenges are quite different from wildlife and landscapes.  One of the most difficult techniques for me is to keep the car in focus while panning smoothly and shooting slow enough to blur the wheels.
