Great shots, Niall.
Really like the black and white and colour shots of the 458 in the rain!

 

[Niall]

Great shots, Niall.
Really like the black and white and colour shots of the 458 in the rain!

Thanks, the view was awesome, seeing them come over the hill with their lights shining through the spray, just wish I had a longer lens for some parts of the circuit

 

[BIGASH]

Great photo's mate I really wish I could take photos to even a tenth of the quality of these! Really good work!

 

[Riad]

Nice work!

Cheers Riad, did you get any decent snaps from the other side of the track?

 

[Naith]

dont forget watermarkings niall.

 

[Niall]

dont forget watermarkings niall.

I won’t, I’ll look into it and get the software I need for them, its something I need to get round to doing I suppose given all the people who will take your images these days.

 

[Riad]

Thanks! means alot



Cheers Riad, did you get any decent snaps from the other side of the track?

I got soaked mate left the camera in the car and watched some of the action! haha

 

[JoeyD]

Oh right haha

 

[Niall]

Cheers, the noise it made was even better!

 

[Christopher]

Awesome mate.

Let me know if you want a watermark making. I can save it as an transparent eps that you can just layer on top of your photos in Photoshop.

I did something similar for Greggles.

 

[JamesBryan]

Awesome as always Niall!

I take it you had some sort of cover for your camera?

 

[JamesBryan]

This.

Create an Action in Photoshop and just batch process all the images.

 

[Niall]

Awesome as always Niall!

I take it you had some sort of cover for your camera?

Stupidly not, I didn’t expect the weather and I didn’t want to miss the shots, thinking back I should have just used a plastic bag or something, but obviously I never let it get completely soaked, It was a case of getting a shot, wipe the camera, getting a shot, wipe it, I kept it out for as least possible time as I could. Even beginner DSLR’s are reasonably tough though, they’ll withstand a couple of rain droplets here and there and its fine so everything is good, but I’m defiantly going to cover it next time

 

[JamesBryan]

That's ok then.

I've got a spare camera cover if you want it some time.

It's makes it fairly harder to compose shots properly, but it does the job.

Cheers chris! Yeah I’d defiantly be interested, just I don’t have photoshop , Are there any cheap copies for mac I can find?

 

[Riad]

Awesome as always Niall!

Dont be silly

 

[Riad]

Cheers chris! Yeah I’d defiantly be interested, just I don’t have photoshop , Are there any cheap copies for mac I can find?

Get light room and il sort you a code mate

Oh cheers james! I’ll make sure I borrow it off you if the forecast looks dodgy next time

 

[Christopher]

Cheers chris! Yeah I’d defiantly be interested, just I don’t have photoshop , Are there any cheap copies for mac I can find?

No worries mate. I'll send you a PDF and eps file. I use Photoshop but Lightroom will recognise those formats too.

PM me with what you want. ie. Niall Lea Photography/Media/whatever or anything else you want.

 

[Niall]

Oh cheers Riad You’ll have to explain on how to do all this, new to me you see

 

[Niall]

Yeah I’ll drop you a PM once I have Lightroom, thanks for this, really appreciated

Great as usualy Niall!

I left my camera in the car. I need to get a cover tbh.

Thanks! yeah I was constantly wiping it off which got annoying, well after watching Digital Rev TV and they put a cup of coffee over a beginner DSLR I wasn’t too worried, but obviously I didn’t want to risk it and tried my best to make sure there was as little water on it as possible
