Nice photos Damen.... my favourite is the solitary Helmet shot

Have you put some of them through photoshop or something to remove colour from the background?

No 1 would be great with a different background and if you'd nailed focus on the eye closest to the camera.

And I too like the helmet.

Thanks guys , i did think that with the closest eye, but she was very fast lol so i had to give lots of attention while trying to snap lol

Indid Shams, i went into lightroom and i turned all greens on saturation to 0, slightly turned down the blues but not a great deal, then i just slightly increased the reds and sharpend with some clarity.
