This was not staged!

As the title may imply the worst, in actuality, the rider (Brent Prindle #277) will make a full recovery. He had been knocked unconscious by the crash and suffered a few broken bones and a severe concussion.

Here is a link to an animated GIF file of the crash.

Portland International Raceway 9/7/2003

Thumb-up Thumb-up    from ptriller/Paul (881) Send mail to this user on September 16, 2003 9:33:06 AM CDT (0) Early critique

The thumbnail didn't do this picture any justice. I like the lighting, the cropping could have been a tad tighter, but what caught my eye was how you timed the shot to include the dust still in the air....leading the viewer to the realisation that this just happened...the action isn't quite stopped...the story hasn't quite ended. keep shooting.
