Borrowed a lens from a friend.....Canon Macro 70-300. Slow AF......but not bad. Did most of my shooting around 1/125 all day...for the wheel blur. So with the slower AF I had a higher trash rate.....but still managed some good shots. Definitely will stick to the L glass.....

Lol. I am new to this site and wandered across your pictures. My husband is on the crew for the TRG 65 car you have a shot of here. He was at VIR this weekend too - my kids know his car and where he was this weekend and we were thrilled to see your picture. Thanks for sharing!

I find it hard to believe that no one else from POTN was at VIR this weekend! There had to be 1 DSLR for every 1.5 people in attendance. And everyone on staff remarked on a record attendance for ANY race at VIR.

Maybe other POTN'ers are resting. :lol:

Fantastic images! Did you post-process then resize again for the forum?

I uploaded the images late last night from my Laptop that has a wide-format screen. I checked on the images from work today, and they spilled off the edge. So I thought I should reduce the size. It is so easy to make the photo's Big and Beautiful, but it doesn't always work for all monitors. I will have them larger on my website in a day or two, plus a handful or two more.

Anyway, thanks for looking!

Rich

Rich,
The images are fantastic! I was just wondering becuase they look like they were saved larger and reduced for POTN. Can wait to see them on your website.

Where were you at for pic #3? Spot doesn't look familiar?

Nice work by the way.

I like the shot of the RX8, but it looks like you've over-sharpened it.

And I don't know what it is, but I think the DP cars are butt-ugly when compared to the ALMS cars.
