Hi All , well long day and yeh was not a lot of spot to get to see these cars and by 4pm came when in the middle of pines was dark so had to bump the iso up a bit but anyhow here is just a few shots as i have to upload a heap later, my first time doing this and wasn't too bad.
Cheers

Nice BBJ,

Those things needs some shockers in them to keep them on Terra Firma

Well captured.

Mic.

Thanks Mic yeh they do for sure few heavy landings, and yeh there was a few that didn't last the day either. Was all fun.

looks great John,
i should give it a try some day, but got put off by a clip collection of the world's worst rally's crashes.
ouch!

once again, amazing motor sports shots!

Thai, mate i have seen some of them as well, but yeh like everything eles i guess you take a chance, but yeh wasn't a bad except for the low light at the end of the day. The other photog used a flash with all his shots so that next on my list.

Cheers

Can't wait for the Coopers Rally in Adelaide!

I went about 5 years ago very under-equipped and can't wait to try my hand at some panning..btw love your 2nd (panned) shot

Liam =]

Mate, those pics are worthy of being published.

Fantastic, all of them.

(I understand that you shoot lots of great race pictures and probably meant this particular type of car shot.) But still you're gonna be downright scary when you "actually get good" or "feel comfortable" at it. Whichever you meant.

Nice action pics, as are your usual fine fare, John!

Excelent pics there mate

Wish i could take some 1/2 as clear one day with my camera/ lense. I was at my local speedway last night at Waikerie which i had not been to for 20 year and took heeps of pics trying to pan and manual focus from behind the fence at 1600 iso . Very hard but when those 360's rumblle past they sound fantastic. ....... i will try and put some pics up later

The second photo with the STi is absolutely brilliant! Love the colours and the blurred background. I challenge anybody to try and recreate that effect in photoshop

Wow, excellent pics John. These are definitely magazine quality. Sorry you didn't have any expected new lenses to shoot with...

Thanks All, for coments and yeh well i dont know how some people get all these shots at higher ISO without getting much noise in them. But yeh this time i didnt forget to check as i actually had to bump it up so i could get a good shutter speed, but i now need a flash as well but yeh first time doing this so i know now for next time.Being in the midle of a pine forest and it gets a bit dark.
Chi would have been good with a nice fast lens, oh well i will have soon. LOL
Anyhow upload a 100 pics to my site last nite if u wanna see more.
Cheers
John
