Amazing shots!

thanks. i honestly thought it would resize it, lesson learned.

had a great time, but unfortunately not much eye candy.

Your focus looks good. Suggestions, Slow down your shutter speed to show motion on the track shots and watch your backgrounds. Try moving around more to see if you can get clean backgrounds or you can try to open it up a bit to blur the background out a bit more.

Overall good shots and good job for your first time shooting races.

+1 otherwise the cars look like they're parked.

Here are some shots from today by my favorite motorsporst shooter out there, John Thawley.

thanks for the c&c. i will def step down my SS next time, i agree about the blur. but as far as getting a better background, no luck at the LBGP! i was lucky to get the shots i got cuz' it's so hard to get a decent shot without having to shot through a fence. next yr, i want to get a press pass. any ideas?
