Kerb Appeal

A shot of British Superbike rider Jon Kirkham at the Snetterton (Norfolk) round of the Championships. It was taken on the Saturday and the track was really busy given this was the practice day for the most part. A really good day out but most of the track is flat so composition was, I thought, a bit tricky. I like this shot for its contrast; the sun was almost overhead but to the right of the bike but the balance isn't too bad.
