sports shot using a macro lens

[mark dyson]

I went to Astly motox race today to photo a friends sons first race and suffered some mishaps. My sons 75/300mm lens only works in manual focus and my 18/70 suddenly stop focusing at 70mm. I was left with a 30mm macro lens and I think it copped quite well.

Yes, I think it coped quite well too, however, the only problem I have is the fact that the bike looks like it's been stuck into the photo. I would have liked to see the wheels appear to be moving. I like the oversaturation of the colours, it pops the bike out really well.
