BMX Riders Big Jump

First time shooting BMX riders flying through the air - and using 3 flashes - in the rain....

Technical challenge took about 5 shots to get the light about right - then was just a case of trying all sorts

This is with the long lens - taken from a safe distance.

The others were with a 17mm lens, taken from 6 inches away from his wheels as he flew past
