Action shots at skateboard race

[Reece Man]

I had competed but I was eliminated in the first heat so I snapped some pictures. I posted another thread but I want opinions as I branch out on my different types of photography so please don't think I'm trying to whore out my pictures. Here are a couple of my favorites all shot with D700 and most with 80-200 f/2.8 and a couple with a 24-70 f/2.8

Please C&C. I wanna work on my action shots.

the last one would have been cie had the focus been mor eon the rider as apposed to the rocks, i understand that sometimes it's hard to do

I agree with you, the last one is the best. Would have like to see some blurring (panning with the skater) to show the speed these guys are getting.

I was actually going for that affect, I thought it looked kinda cool.
