Knockhill Adventures

[Audrey_D]

I've only taken track pictures once with my kit lens so after purchasing my new 55-200mm i thought i'd give bikes a bash. I really enjoyed myself and never realised the power they had :)

Some of my shoddy pics. More or less straight from the camera.

When we arrived it was pouring down:

Yup they're still there!

Started to dry a bit when we made our way round the track:

not bad Audz, they look abit dark and blurry in places. they are straight off the cam?

Ill stick my second time at shooting track pics from trax and you can compare. although mine arent much different in quality

Yeah, cropped teh wee dude falling off though.

Was going to edit them before i put them up but then i wont know how to improve them.

I was fiddling about with the settings but it was absolutely pouring down so gave up :)

I was racing at knockhill with bsb other weekend, and yes it did rain lol

good effort, it can be tricky shooting when its raining / overcast as the lighting can be really flat. if you put up some hi-res images then i will have a tinker with one then let you know what i changed. i tried with one from above but they seem to be heavily compressed and therefore the image starts to break down when i change stuff etc.
