Very nice pictures Dan. Are they from public areas or from trackside? Never been to Cadwell Park yet and was wondering what it is like for photography from the public areas.

[RichardtheSane]

Nice series of shots, you captured some great race action there!

What was your shutter speed? I'm thinking if you go back then you would do well to lower it a bit which should give the wheels some blur and a sense of speed.

This was from Spectator Viewing, the areas you can go is great, no passes needed to go into the pits etc

Great Fun

I did do a few of them, but my panning was off yesterday which was a shame

Thanks for the replies

i was just thinking the same thing tbh, would have looked really great with some wheel blur. great shots though :)

nice shots

has something happened to them in the resizing? the cars look a bit misproportioned

EDIT

I'm not going mad, am I?

Yea you are correct, also posted on another forum, had to resize 50+ to 800x600 wasnt going to go through everyone and do it, so got a program to do it for me, its messed some of them up, so it isnt you, lol

Thanks for the replies

[Dave_G]

hehe

shots look good, which lens did you use?

[Skip Souza]

Thanks for asking Dave. I didn't want to seem impolite but they did look awful tall. :-)

:lol: Dave, I thought that as well but didn't want to post incase I was completely wrong :o :lol: :p

Some nice locking-up shots, good action :) As already mentioned you could do with using a slower shutter speed to get more sense of speed. On a couple of shots the cars cars could've been parked.

[Dave_G]

not just me then!

Well we must have been stood next to each other a couple of times through the day. Some nice shots. Shutter speed has already been mentioned, but I would be tempted to have cropped some of the shots a little. There's a couple where you've just caught the edge of a tyre wall or debris fence in the bottom corners that are maybe a little distracting, and would need much of a crop to remove.

Pick of the bunch for me is the yellow ZR shot. The composition is excellent, and shows that some rules are meant to be broken.

Cheers,

Simon.
