Sydney Royal Easter ShowA few of my shots from the show last Saturday. Wasn't really happy with any of my pics. Had trouble with the harsh lighting at the wood chop.

I used a PS action that was mentioned a while ago on this forum. Seems to work nicely. I added a bit of noise to this as well.
I quite liked this series and the light didn't bother me too much. My only issue was with the wood chop, he doesn't stand out enough from the background crowd.
But I see you had it cranked open to 5.6 so there wasn't much you could do unless you had a bigger lens. Nikon D70s, Nikkor 18-70, Sigma 70-300DG APO

Nice shots overall, think trying to find that prime position to take photos would of made you more happy.
Eg car coming towards you sliding instead of a rear end shot of the Holden. If the skater was more on your side it would have been a ripper shot maybe Ben Yu
