Tony, the first shot of the eyes really shows the concentration involved and has a huge human interest in it, also like the 996 shot a lot, shows plenty of air and the amount of camber these guys run. Nice

I agree with Glen on your shots Tony - the Porsche shot has been emphasised really well by it being a low shot

I like shot # 2...if that techy weren't there then that shot would be very nice !!!

Hi Drifter, seen these last nite didn't get a chance to coment but yeh these are great, all of them so yeh would be nice to get to a track like that. I know they have the V8s at Phillip Island next month and now after being there i think it would be a great place to veiw and take pics of them there as there is no high barriers to obstuct the veiw. But i am not allowed as she inside said i have to take her to Clipsal race in Adelaide next year. Oh well cant win them all.

Thanks for the comments guys .Much appreciated .
Here's a couple more .

Go !!!!


This one surprised me .From above the pit garages at Eastern creek .Just the angle seemed to be a turn off at first but when i saw this i thought hmm ,cool , i'll be going back up there again .

Tander. Turn 2 Oran Park

Oran Park turn two V8 supercar round during the practice session on Saturday. Frozen wheels are a bit of a bummer but i was aiming to capture the flame nice and sharp and to get them a teensy bit further round the corner so as the wheels weren't as much in view with the higher shutter speed .

Thanks Drifter, great shots again and the tander shot is still a goody even if wheels are frozen.
Well done.

Thanks John
Sometimes they turn out other times they look like they are standing still .

Tony, i know, but i am one for low shutter speeds as most of my photography is of bikes i try to use as low as possible, but sometimes can be hard and well i reemember Onyx mention some time ago about using P mode on camera and while still getting some motion blur i found this to be very usefull for some cases. I have lately been using shutters of 1/25 for certain effects, something different. But you have done well with your shots i would be very happy with these.
