Hi all...







...Cheers.
The pick of the bunch for me (apart from the Doris, who could make any picture look good). I wish I could offer you some constructive C&C, but all I can say is well done and that I will be shamelessly copying your style next time I go to see some motorsport!

What I particularly like is that you don't shoot loads of the same scene, changing only the car in the frame. There is some real imagination and vision in the composition.

Can I have that fiver you promised me, now?

I didn't see him with another lens on Sunday, just the 50mm. It was funny watching FPC panning with the 50mm, but the end result are excellent!

p.s. my first post with my change in name. It will not change again, it's just to save confusion on other places biggrin

Not all taken with the 50mm, 9 of the shots were taken with the 70-300mm smile

I like panning with the 50mm biggrin its not long enough for most of the circuit but for areas like the hairpin its ok. I think the wide aperture helps with the tracking as well sometimes...


Cheers.
