South Shore Offroad Rumble - Aug. 5/07

[JaguarXJ7]

I am beginning to become a motorsport junkie!

Here's a few from last weekend at the South Shore Offroad Rumble.

Shame I can only post a few, but here is a link to more (but not all) if you wish to look.

Thanks for stopping by .............. Please leave a comment or critique. All shots are direct from camera except for resizing.

You should do some work on them before posting, its much better to show you best work rather than a rough proof picture.
As presented now composition is poor and all the pictures are flat sharpening would also help on them.
It s hard for people to comment when its not the finished product.

That said we can get an idea of the action of the day, which looks pretty hot!

Thank you for the comments; they raise a very good point. My objective is to do most of the work behind the camera and not in front of the computer as was once told to me by an excellent photographer. I want to become a good (or better) photographer and not a great photo editor, therefore I almost always post the raw untouched image in the hopes of learning how to improve my "In Camera" photography. Of course, I do realise that some editing will be necessary, but I feel it's important to nail down the basics first.

[JaguarXJ7]

Is this a little more to your liking?

[khall]

JaguarXJ7. Yes its a lot better thanks for posting.
Re your comments about getting the best shots in the camera, yes that is always going to be true, but no matter how good you are you can always improve a picture afterward's as you have done in this case. Just one more point you alone know how much work you had to do before posting.

Thanks for coming back and having another look, I am glad you liked it. Your comments are quite valid and appreciated. I will certainly keep them in mind for future postings.

Here is one more stab at a "finished" product. I am not sold on the frame though; it's my first attempt at framing.

I hope you all enjoy it.

[khall]

Hello Jag.
The last shots fine, shows the speed OK. Like you not sure about the frame.
If your going to give the location details why not add the year.

[JaguarXJ7]

Yeah, the more I look at it the more I dislike the frame. Oh, well ......... it's all about learning; I think I'll concentrate on improving my pics both in camera and computer before I bother with that stuff for now.

Thanks again khall for dropping by.
