Had some fun shooting these guys on Saturday, I can't believe how young some of the drivers were (youngest was 14 this weekend). Lots of up and coming drivers many of whom seem to want to transition into the Formula BMW series.

C&C welcome and appreciated as always.

1. Calm, cool and collect navigating through into Turn 6.

4. I couldn't get any lower unless I laid on the track and let them run over me.

Would love the drive one of those at 14 lol! They all seem a little soft to me, might just be me. Overall i think i like the last shot the most!

Nice angle on #4.
DOF seems too shallow to me. Bump the ISO up a bit next time.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot next time. I mainly kept to ISO 100 for the weekend which hurt me a bit when the clouds rolled in.

I really like #1, but technically that is still turn 5 ...

I was shooting these cars from turns 1 & 10 but not many turned out to my liking - they were just not too interesting. Next time I'm there I'm staying in the Mosses corner area to get the best shots like yours.


Canon XTi / 55-250mmIS / NiftyFifty / 75-300mm / 430EX II / hopefully a whole lotta luck

heh you're right that is still Turn 5 as he hasn't quite crested the apex leading into turn 6 yet!

Moss corner is fun and there's always tons of action going on there, I didn't have much time on Saturday so I didn't get to do my usual drive around the track to get all the corners :(
