Stop number two for the Oregon Enduro Series brought the racers to Bend, Oregon this past weekend. With only three days of covering enduro racing under my belt before this past Saturday I still felt new to the sport. It takes a while before I feel comfortable shooting a sport or event because I haven't yet experienced all the possible issues that may make it difficult to create quality images.
On Saturday I took a risk and tried to find locations that anyone else covering the event would not think of going to. There were a few spots on the course that were going to have a bunch of photographers camped out at so as much as I wanted those safety shots I also wanted to prove to myself that I could make any location on the course work for making great images. It's kind of like a confidence builder for me because then I know that if something happens and I don't get to shoot from the perfect location with the best jumps, technical sections, and backgrounds I can still deliver quality work. So what do you think, did it work?
