Enduro bikers at open pit mine!
It's sporty Saturday! And I actually made some sport-related photos, surprise surprise.
We arrived at a defunct open pit mine near Tarnowskie Góry in Poland and spotted some bikers using the rough terrain for some daredevil rides. So I tried to photograph them with my compact Lumix LX15 camera, with varying results...

1/200th of a second was too slow to capture this beast of a machine without motion blur...

So I ramped up the shutter speed to 1/2000th of a second for another opportunity to shoot. Unfortunately, with maximum telephoto length of 72mm eq... well, it's cropped and it's 1600 ISO...

I would even say that focus is off...

This one is even more cropped from a 20 Mpix file, again 1/2000 shutter speed and high ISO.

So don't be like me, get a proper telephoto lens or camera, like Panasonic FZ2000 with 480mm eq. zoom lens.
