Finally back home to finish editing some photos from last weekend....this is new to me so finding it pretty tricky! What ya think?

Nice bump! It's been redesigned a bit too, still looks nice.

Thanks for the comment Nick. There is a reason why you might think it's not quite right. All I'll say is that I did take separate shots of the background, and the car.....but they were taken using a tripod....so the car is in the right proportions for the background. I'm trying new...

Like the reflection shot Brazo. And did that stranger (?) let you take their photo like that? More rig practice with bomber this morning, only a quick shoot again. Need to find some suitable locations.

Good to see some corrected WB shots ;) It's always heard to judge the sharpness of resized photos. Do they look soft at 100%?

Nice shot Nial! This is a VERY quick test shot after work, no care taken with positioning the car etc...just testing. Pretty pleased so far, doing a proper shoot with bomber on Saturday....so stay tuned ;)

I still maintain the 1*2s are much more fun cars, and put a bigger smile on your face. But if you're boring, the 197/200s are much better to live with day to day......(and slower ;))

You're getting pretty handy with your lighting now Scott :)

Pah! You call those stripped!

Same, would love to, but off out in Brum that night :(

This is driving me absolutely nuts!! For quite a while I've had this problem on my Mac, and my PC before then (Im pretty sure). Basically, any download will download about 50-70mb then stops. Just freezes.... So I have to resort to trying to find everything in torrent form, as that'll work...

Great attempts! Panning is just something you have to practice with, I've been trying for years and I still struggle lol!

Matt - I use the Lee system.

Sorry Paul , missed this. I have a manfrotto 055CLB and 141RC head. It's pretty heavy, but compared to my camera and lens, it's damn light! The whole thing is pretty damn heavy but there's no alternative really.

On road......no. On track.....yes.

There's a difference between unnecessarily upgrading to something that is far beyond what you need, and upgrading what is next to useless in the first place. Standard pads will not last at all. Also, if you get better pads for the track, you've got better pads on the road too. So it isn't a...

That must be the equivalent of your marmite shot lol! I do like it though, looks very different to any 'normal' shots. Liking the ones of the Shard too. Good to hear you had a good time, see there is more to photography than just motor sports ;-)

Nice Matt! Really crisp and sharp photos. Love the last one, if only you caught a double decker going though, that would have made for a nice effect. Hope you enjoyed the evening, well...as much as we could have done in that cold lol!

lol I was going to say that's dedication! But I will take that back then ;)

I wanted to do a lot more light trail shots, but after taking that shot I realised that I should have left to catch the train 15mins ago! So I legged it in hope..... Next time.... Looking forward to seeing your shots Matt :)

^nice! Was that this morning's sunrise?

So here's my shots from our little meet. A few more on my site: http://www.danfreemanphotography.com/blog/2012/02/an-evening-in-london/ T'was a good evening chaps, although it was bloody cold....probably the reason I didn't take quite as many photos as I thought I would. Until...

Yep we'll do again sometime. Just killing time at the station now. My mum wasn't too pleased to hear she would be picking me up at midnight though! Looking forward to editing the pics though.

What a cold day that was!! Good to meet you Matt and Nick. I wish I was typing this on the train home but I missed it lol! Waiting for the next one. D'oh!!

Maintaining a good tyre pressure would be my best advice.

The only places I'm keen to go is the around the river in the late afternoon, and probably the same reason if it looks like a decent sunset/sky is on the cards. Other than that....I'm up for anything. And thanks for the tips Brazo :)

Ok, I'll get that one then. We'll probably be cold enough by then too!

What time are we likely staying out until? I can either get the train at 20.20 or 21.48? Not sure if the 20.20 will be late enough, but if I get the 21.48 I get (near) home at 23.50, and I'd be lucky if one of my parents will pick me up at that time!

Well it's quite hard to say, but if you're dealing with UV, then I know the ambient light levels will be very low. So high ISO (without it being noisy) is a must. Sounds like a tricky one, best of luck!

Thinking about it, are you taking photos of the room, or the band....in the room? If it's the latter, scratch the tripod idea. Just prey your camera is good at high ISO, as you'll need a very fast lens, or high ISO (probably both tbh).
