East Midlands Racing Association

[TomWilko]

A busy weekend for me and my camera!

Following on from Saturday's "natury" shoot, I decided I couldn't hang on to not seeing any Motorsport for any longer, so took myself down Mallory Park for the East Midlands Racing Association bike event.

It was a really good afternoon of racing, even though it was so so cold and I am pleased with the photo's I took - almost 250 in total and really getting the hang of using this new DSLR business.

These are 3 of my favourite from the event, not to bore you with to many as quite a few are similar to this in respect of their position/style etc.

All images are cropped and resized, but apart from that...maybe a little levels done but nothing else.

200mm, F/6.3, 1/320sec, ISO-200 - Shutter Priority


113mm, F/5, 1/160sec, ISO-100 - Shutter Priority


184mm, F/7.1, 1/320sec, ISO-200 - Shutter Priority


Comments and critique welcome, I found that at a circuit of similar build to Mallory Park and a lens like the 70-200 will work really well, however when I start going to Silverstone and Donington later in the summer I am definatey going to benefit if I get a 1.4x or 2.x tele I think.

great panning technique there. again good set of shots, your new lens is certainly getting some good use already, keep it up!

I love it and can't give it enough praise! Thinking of getting shots 1 and 2 blown up to some A4 prints to have a look what the output looks like in the 'real world.'
