Your best photo (one you took yourself!!) - Page 17

Not my best, but maybe my most unusual....

This is a shot of the winning Monaro frmo the Bathurst 24hr in 2004. Im not particularly a holden/monaro fan, but i thought the Monaro, holden sign, monaro flag and the background of the city of Bathurst worked pretty well

here is a link the full size version of it:

The link to the full size pic doesn't work for me. Shame, because it's a very nice pic, IMO. (Although, despite the obvious relevance, I'd have liked to see the flag just a tad smaller......

)

zonda · 27 Feb 2004, 05:29 (Ref:886984)

Hi jon

Yep all taken with Canon 1d/10d during last years BTCC season. Mainly using 100-400 with 1.4 convertor at times.

Been filling my time since the new year with Motocorss.. these guys are mad..

Chris

rescueboy999 · 15 Mar 2004, 21:17 (Ref:906341)

Had to be Canon! I have the D30 but will move up at end of the season once the price has come down a bit. The 100-400 was ordered last night, so I am just itching as the 200 with x 1.4 is just a little bit slow at times...as to Motocross, MAD but not as mad as World Superbikes...

Nice shots of F1 at Silverstone, will take a better look at them all tomorrow night as I have just been reminded I need to be in Manchester tonight!!!!

Jon

Chris Lee · 15 Mar 2004, 22:02 (Ref:906394)

Cheers and good luck with the 100-400.

Duffacus · 18 Mar 2004, 19:18 (Ref:909590)

Heres one I took at the BTCC open day at Donington. It was took from the pitwall as the car drove past. The image is as it would be high resolution - I haven't cropped the image in anyway (only made is smaller)

Duffacus · 18 Mar 2004, 19:23 (Ref:909596)

and another...

Duffacus · 18 Mar 2004, 19:29 (Ref:909609)

My favourite from the day though was this one, took at Redgate.

jpm · 21 Mar 2004, 13:16 (Ref:913912)

Here are a few from last year.
Hope I get some hints for improvement from the pros out there, it would be very appreciated.

some nice clear shots there jpm

I'd guess that your panning with shutter speeds of about 1/250 to 1/500, maybe you could experiment with slower shutter speeds to create even more impression of speed?

Which circuit are the DTM/F3 ones at?

I like the Larbre Viper shot - one of my favourite spots at Le Mans - I think it also looks good cropped vertically:

jpm · 21 Mar 2004, 22:01 (Ref:914333)

thanks gi_gav
they were taken in Hockenheim.
Yes, shutter speeds between 1/250 and 1/350, but I´m still a beginner and hope to improve the results this year with longer shutter speeds.

gi_gav · 22 Mar 2004, 00:17 (Ref:914484)

With slower panning shots, expect to get a lot that don't turn out - keep at it 'cause the results are great when they work, and you're already off to a good start.

Hugewally · 26 Mar 2004, 17:41 (Ref:920297)

I like this one because of the angle...

and this one because of the thought process it invokes in my mind...

Nice stuff Hugewally...what did you shoot the night time one at?...and where is Largo in FL???!!!!

**Aysedasi** · 26 Mar 2004, 23:14 (Ref:920674)

The night shot is terrific. At first you might think, shame there wasn't just a little more exposure of the car, then you realise the shot doesn't need it at all. If I could get just one similar at La Sarthe this June, I'd be happy. (Two and I'd be delirious....

)

**Snapper Baz** · 27 Mar 2004, 10:07 (Ref:921068)

I shot 2 rolls of film at Le Mans during the night when Mercedes won (1989 I think) and Fuji went and lost them both and I never saw them again! Learnt a good lesson then by never sending E6 off to a lab I didin't know locally. Things of the past now though....film!!!

I tried this at Le Mans 2003 test day and was pleased of the result

rdjones · 27 Mar 2004, 19:29 (Ref:921444)

I have been rallying today - North Humberside Stages. I managed to get this shot, the momment I took I knew it was good one, but now I have a proper look at it I think it is fantastic.

Duffacus · 27 Mar 2004, 20:40 (Ref:921489)

Lovely Angle on that shot!

**Snapper Baz** · 27 Mar 2004, 23:20 (Ref:921587)

Bernard...how did you get that pic so big on this page and what did you scan it in at (nice shot by the way!)? My 1st was a bit small and not as sharp!
