Out for a dirve on Sunday and came across a group of dirt biker on a local farm just north of Welcome. The owner who rides has set up a 6 to 8 acre area dirt bike course with lots of jumps some very good spots to shoot the riders in mid air. Will have to return, to work on F-stop and shutter times as I usually shoot landscapes and these riders move a litter faster.
Cheers:
Allan
The image was shot at f11, shutter 1/800 sec, ISO 320, used a 70-300mm at 125mm=187mm at 35mm. Opened as a smart object, then one layer processed for the sky, then a mask added to remove the rider, copy by wasy of a smart layer, opened and the mask inverted so the rider could be processed, then put back together.

Re: High Flyer
If it wasn't for the fact that he is looking down it would look like he is just going to continue climbing!
