Thank you! No crop on this one.

Thank you very much! This is straight from the camera apart from curves & sharpen, so I could certainly clone out the lights (I agree it would make the shot stronger). I would probably also clone out the orange start-finish line because I don't think that helps a lot either.

Unfortunatly!!, I did not keep my finger on the button mostly because I was out of zoom-out space :-) [I was also having to pre-focus because the smoke and speed were causing havoc on the auto-focus - I suspect that is why people doing this a lot end up with a 1-series camera]. It was tough (and fun) them coming from that far back and the running straight past me :-)

This one I like! Excellent capture, I am wondering if you did capture one just after he came out of the smoke, where the biker behind him is still in the smoke but visible, THAT would have been an awesome shot but this is still very very good and a shot I would be proud of myself. I am a bit distracted by the lights up in the left corner, this shot would have much more mysterious and captivating without them, any way to crop/clone/burn them out of the picture? Anyway, NICE :)
