Planning on photographing a racing event, whether it involves runners, bicyclists, motorcycles, or race cars? If so, try to position yourself near a corner or turn on the course. Photos at turns can add perspective to your shot. As an added bonus, participants may have to slow down a little at a bend (and in auto racing, I do mean *a little*). If you need to increase your shutter speed slightly due to a lack of light, this gives you a better chance to get a sharp photo.
