Sorry Steemit. It's been a long week at work and I've been doing 11 hour days in meetings and with my best friend Microsoft Excel. Thus, I haven't been posting as much as I have wanted to. Even then, I'm stoked that I've been selected in a few of the photo contests recently. That's really motivating and I promise to post more content in the near future.

Until then, enjoy this photo of a motorbiker racing on the black sand beaches of New Zealand. The beach itself was pretty empty since the weather wasn't fantastic, but that didn't stop a few people from using it. If you scroll back in my blog, you'll see another photo of people on horseback on the beach. Lots of photographic opportunities! I wish I could go back...

Is that a drz400?

Ride safe from a fellow rider

Pretty sure it's a rmz 250. Thanks for the comment! It wasn't me, but I wish I had an off road bike! I used to motorbike, but on a Yamaha XS400. I loved that bike! Hope to get back into it one day...

good approach, I like sports photographs a lot ... it brings out the naturalness of people

It's always tricky keeping up with Steemit, it just doesn't stop! Great shot!

Thanks Chris. Unfortunately, the other work doesn't stop but I hope it does! I can't handle it for that much longer... fortunately I do have a "break" coming up soon. I'll post about that soon I hope!
