Taken today, Canon 40d, Sigma 10-20mm 1/60th f5 ISO 250 @ 10mm. Was about 70 or so cm away from the car...

Freaking love this. If only I knew how far away 70cm was... sounds close though! haha

70cm = 700mm = 28 inches = 2ft 4inches (frickin too close)

Understand the "70cm = 700mm" and "28 inches = 2 ft 4in" but how did it go from 700mm to 28 inches ?

typical conversion from metric to imperial (english)
I knew that 1 Metre equals 100cm or 1000mm so for the imperial conversion had to be less than 3.3ft the reason why I converted it was because there are quite a few people who still struggle with the metric to imperial conversions, I grew up in the UK using the metric system, when I moved to the states, I had to learn fractions and the imperial system of measuring.

So for nherndon just think of two 12 inch (30cm / 300mm) rulers end to end.
I just wish the US would just convert to metric and be done with it.

You know .... I really did know that but ..... feel so stupid

Couple old pannings, maybe my first good ones.

I just got back from Vegas yesterday, while I was there I went to Friday Qualifying at LVMS. Here's a few of my favorites from Round One.

Unfortunately the smoke from the burnouts was lingering around during some of the runs

1.

Definitely not my best, but one of my favorites. Absolutely no PP.

Nice panning Benjybh

Hi all,

This is my first post.
What a great thread.
These were taken at a rally in South Australia a couple of weeks a go.
I was standing in a pine forest and for something different decided to go "arty" and try shooting through the trees.
Details are 1/10th second @ F16 with ISO 50 on a 1dMKII and 100-400L Series.

Does this count? I love this picture

Phil - I like the first photo - that's really good for 1/10th second.

I'd probably just get a big blurry blob if I tried that!

I'll see your Hawk...
