It’s a pretty great place. Well while I was there I saw a schedule for the upcoming mountain bike series, Minnesota State Championship Series (MNSCS) and the first race was going to be the next day in a suburb of St. Paul.

I thought why not get out there with my camera and a few flashes and work on my outdoor lighting of sports. So I packed up my gear( list of what I took below) and headed out to make some images.

Canon 40D
Canon 550EX Flash
Vivitar 285HV Flash
Canon 15mm Fisheye Lens
Sigma 17-35 Lens
Sigma 24-70 Lens
Sigma 70-200 Lens
3 Pocket Wizard Plus II’s
1 Super Clamp
1 SLR Gorilla Pod

I set the 550EX flash, @ 1/2 power on the gorilla pod and wrapped that around a small, tree/branch that was just along the path. I added a diffuser on that flash. And then I put the Super Clamp with the Vivitar 285 @1/4 power, on a tree branch on the other side of the trail pointing downward. After that it was just shoot shoot shoot. I think I came out with some great stuff that day and am looking forward to the next race to try out some more stuff.
