Default driver & race shoot

A friend whose Daughter has been karting for years asked me if I could take some pics of her as she was offered a drive in the legends series of racing at Knockhill
so I got a few posed pics, would have liked to sit the car somwhere better but had no option on this it was either the garage wall or the back of a caravan
so I chose the wall

and then a few of her in action, They were happy with the results
but I am always open to any C&C from the forum
I always look upon it as another lesson in the ladder

Default Re: driver & race shoot

I don't understand why you only had the choice of garages or a caravan as background?

Were you only there for the race? There should have been plenty of time during the day to arrange a photoshoot. Knockhill is great for taking pictures.

As for the pictures. Why have hidden the driver with the car? Next time stand or even crouch the driver in front of the car. You can then hide the background.

The track shots are okay. I would have taken them as she exited the hairpin as in your first two images. The background is better.
