Time to have another go in the competition. This was taken at the Saturday practice session for British Superbikes at Brands Hatch.
The picture is of Chris "Stalker" Walker rounding Stirling's Bend. The sparks are as he grounds a toe slider. I took several photos that day, some a lot better than this one. I felt this fitted the "Over the edge" theme the best though.
Details:
Manual Mode
ISO100
1/640s
f5.6
300mm
Lens: Nikkor 70-300mm VR on D80
Cropped from original, levels adjustment and unsharp mask in Photoshop. Then resized and quality reduced to make it competition friendly.
This was my first attempt at shooting motorsport. Was quite impressed with the overall results. Practice day was a great day to shoot as there were very few people about, apart from photographers. Other photos from the day available on my Flickr page.
Cheers for looking.
