These are a few pic's from the Charlotte Criterium 2012.......also my first try at taking shot's of moving things...some good, some bad....wasnt easy getting shot's as for when the biker's would be coming up the road everyone would be leaning over the rail to see ...no way to get a higher spot so ..did my best with the opportunities I had...
