MX Trails

This week, and past weekend, we make a few trips to the MX trails, home to legends like Timo, Greg, Sven, Nico Vinck and more.

These are also my first pictures with my "new" external flash. It's a huge Metz 45 CT-1, probably over 30 years old. it needed some fixing, and still doesn't function quite correctly, but still I'm quite pleased with the outcome. It communicates with my camera through a 4meter long wire, so I can move it around for different results. Oh the joy of experimenting!

anyway, here are the pics, enjoy!

nico, doing a crazy hip transfer/spine jump. both lip and landing are about 3meters high, and the transfer is at least 3 and a half meters far. sick!
