Action Shots C&C

[DBA]

A couple of my favorites from this past weekend.

Thoughts on cropping and position?

Awesome shots.

very nice. composition was dead on...well the first one could have used a lil cropping to move the rider more towards the upper right hand but other than that the colors and sharpness are spot on. I applaud your work.

Yeah I see what you mean on the first photo.

Gorgeous shots! I love the last one for obvious reasons. They really need to move that parking lot for you!!!

Yeah seriously, the best corner on the track had obstructions on 3 sides. Thankfully the f/2.8 helped with that.


The quality of these shots pretty much solidifies my liking of the Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. Especially considering that these were taken in the late afternoon/evening under overcast/rainy conditions and with a 1/1600 shutter speed.

Last shot is pretty much perfect. The background in the others really kills it for me. It's too bad as they are bang on good.

Yeah same here. Any ideas on making it less of a distraction? I'm going to see if I can darken the background some, make the rider pop out more.

It's one of those tough ones, the cars in the background are the background, I'm not sure making it darker will help. The last one, obviously a different location, why didn't you stay there?

Can you get higher?

I do have a number of shots from that corner, however thanks to how the corner flows don't have as many good ones.

Can you get higher?

It's pretty much flat ground.
