Goodwood Festival of Speed 2008

Just a few pics from today.

The new GSXR1000






























Some more arty ones... as i couldn't see over the hay bails most of the time so ended up cutting the bottom of bikes off LOL...




LeMans car winner of GT1 Class.


Nissan GT-R

Nice

I like the cropped pics where you couldnt see over the bails - that blur caused by the tops of the bails at the bottom of the picture adds a nice effect, at least it does for me

Nice to see steve hislop's boost yamaha out

Sam - stunning photos as always, got any more?

Used to go to FOS every year however haven't been for a couple now

My sister is down at this. She phoned me when the F1 cars were hooning past, just to rub it in a bit.

Love the rally pics in HDR. Thats an amazing effect with the dirt swirls.

Had a ticket for today, but health prevented me going. absolutely gutted.

Brilliant pics as usual. This is definitely my fave.

Great use of HDR there Sam. Do you take all your shots in RAW format and what camera are you using. I'm a bit of a photography novice and would be happy if you could include some details along if you can like ISO, speed & aperture settings. Thanks for sharing. I really love to see you artistic and beautiful images. Thanks!

Thanks All!

Zankus, for the action shots i was using my canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS USM L lens, for the closeups i was using the stock lens which is the canon 18-55mm but i have an attachement which is a 0.42 wide angle lens which gives some fun results. I was using a canon 400D. Most settings were done on Aperture priority (AV) Aperture set at around 2.8 - 3 as i needed the higher shutter speed, ISO is 100, i very rarely use anything higher than 400ISO.

The processes to get them to look like the drawing ones aren't HDR's they were just played in photoshop until i got the result i wanted from using different filters the only HDR (and its a true one) is the GSXR at the top in my first post
