Motocross Photography

August 4 @ 10:00 am 5:00 pm

Who is ready to practice motorsports photography? We are planning another outing to

Claverack MX for capturing some high-flying motocross action.

Claverack MX is a family-friendly motocross track located at 131 Tischauser Road, Claverack, NY. Racing starts at 10 a.m. Rob Near, who has photographed at this track many times, will be our guide, helping you with the best exposure settings. There are a great many good locations to shoot from, resulting in images like the ones you see on this posting. Racers range from peewees all the way up through senior racers.

During this outing, we will focus on perfecting panning skills and capturing the exhilarating moments of motorcycles in mid-air. For those working on earning merits through MIR, this is the perfect opportunity to capture reportage-type images.

Direction from Albany Area:

FROM ALBANY: Take the NYS I-87 SOUTH to Exit 21A, take I-912M East to exit B1, get on I-90 West to exit 12 US-9 South. At the traffic circle, take the 2nd exit to 9H-S.  Make a left onto NY-66 North, then right onto Gahbauer Rd, then right onto Tishauser Rd. The track is on the left.
