I like the gallery a lot. How has Coppermine been to work with? I went with Gallery2 because it has some great embedding options with Wordpress (which I use for my blog), but I really like the look of Coppermine galleries.

I especially like this pic:

it looks like the driver might need to work on their entry a little bit.

Now for the 2nd C in C&C: Have you experimented with slower shutter speeds? They might help capture the sense of speed in your drive-by pics.

Other than that, I think you do a great job of capturing the cars. Sometimes picking the best vantage point is really tough. You've gotten some great angles on those turns. I really need to get out to the local tracks more often...it's so much fun to come home with ringing ears and pictures of great cars.

Hello

Thanks for the replies

Coppermine has been great to use, no problems as of yet, tried updating which was a bit of a pain but apart from that its pretty good

The Slower Shutter speed i have tried on the newer photos as the older ones were with high speeds

Thanks

Dan.
