I struggled quite a bit here. Late day Sept sun made for tough lighting, and I had a hard time balancing that with the speed. A few looked alright, but not my favorites. Amazing place though!

Tom Sykes, likely season's champion

Marco Melandri, BMW is leaving the series after this year. A real shame

The compositions look OK.
In the corkscrew I likely would have used the vertical camera orientation to show how dramatic the drop is on that section of the racetrack.

All of your images have a blue-ish color cast that also makes them look under exposed. The Exif data is showing Auto White Balance was used by your 7D.


I used the Camera Raw - White Balance eyedropper tool, and clicked on the white area on the fairing next to the number 66.

Camera Raw can also batch process such that the WB fix applied to one image can be applied to any synchronized images. Batch process Camera Raw files: Tutorial
