Track faces D/U warning

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

The usual awesome action shots BBJ I've come to expect from you 8) I also like the more candid shots that show what's going on off the track, definitely looks like a few characters :)

Adam, i thought that lens would way a ton but i was surprised it really isnt that heavy and does hand hold it now and then, i dont think it any heavier than my 300m Nikon but yes at 500m she is a rocket.

Jase i am not sure yet to find out what the go is, with my Ulyssian friends but a house there somewhere. Yes i am going to try smuggle the 300 in, if not mate in the first shot is going to take it in then meet up and give to me, see how it goes but i better get on to that.

Hi bbj. I'm always in awe of the images you get! They're always so sharp and colourful, and these are no exceptions. You've certainly progressed a long way from the fuji talk forum on dpreview.

My wife saw the picture of your mate with his big lens and asked what he did in order for his wife to let him get it! :)

Cheers,
Owen.

Jase, if you read the Faqs they say no lens bigger than 200m so this is why i have to see what happens.

Owen, i think he was on a shoot at some maylasian GP and just brought it, Lisa asked him today what it cost him and yeh told me not to get any ideas or i will be single. Well does a lot of magazine stuff so guess he puts it all to good use.

Fuji days yeh oh well we all learn.
