Nikon D300, Nikkor 70-200mm VRII 165mm (approx. 35mm length of 247mm) 1/1250th at f/2.8, iso 400 (download the pic – all of the exif info should be there… ) …. so the other day I stop in at one of the very few remaining photo related retail stores that are still left in the area,…
Round 4 of WNYOA’s series wrapped up this past Sunday out in Arcadia, NY at the Bark Buster event. There is an AMA National Hare Scrambles event this coming weekend (June 8-9) at the Greek Peak ski center / resort out in Virgil, N.Y. I’m going to go out and shoot that – it’s…

( frickin’ weather men and their damned WRONG forecasting… ) In actuality it wasn’t really ~to~ bad but it certainly wasn’t anywhere near the forecasted 50-some…
Now that SDR’s (aka Belden Hill to many of you) winter series has finished up, and there are only two events remaining on Broome’s schedule, I figured that I’d add a couple more grabs for the highlight reel. The photo’s will show in reverse order – most recent races to oldest. Turn up the volume,…
