Photos Photo of the Day

Just some ilford hp5 120 film, 6x6cm as far as im aware? I may take you up on that offer when I resolve the overlapping issue....

The take up spool needs to be made thicker so that each time I wind on the film, the film travels further and spaces the negatives correctly - not sure how I'm gunna work this out without some good ol' trial and error

One more from me this morning;

I'll have to double-check what size the scanner does, it was originally bought for 35mm, but it is quite a sophisticated one.

 

Something from a little while back, but only just got around to editing it

First pic with my Carl Zeiss Jena 50mm F2.8 Tessar. I'm having fun with these old lens

 

Piss poor lighting but at least I caught that big red light underneath.

Ive been asked to cover some specific riders this weekend (more on the local level rather than the big guns) so there might be some new faces on my flickr

 

final shots from Holiday, taken long enough to go through them all.

Definitely nowhere near as good as bdigitals lot, but here are a few pics taken at Silverstone earlier today.

The photos are pretty much raw and without any post-processing (excluding them being resized). Might have to tinker with them later, but any suggestions are welcome.

Kit used: Canon EOS 400D with an EFS 18-135mm lens

 

I've been bitten by the RC bug once more, so my shutter's been chasing after them more than anything else lately. I quite like these three, so I thought I'd share.

 

Plenty wrong with this pic technically but meh....

Doesn't matter when what you get is nice.

 

This would look really good with the cars left and everything else desaturated to B&W.

Not that i have any clue how to do that

 

Hello everyone,

Well.....the weekend just gone at Brands Hatch completes my first season taking pictures of fast moving stuff. I got my first DSLR in May 2012, taking casual pictures at the superbikes, some of my cat, my pc and some scenery until I decided to give this sports lark a proper go in 2013......and I have to say its been a tough year but I feel like ive learned so much!

I cant say ive always come home happy with the results but that's what its all about, learning where you went wrong and tackling it head on the next time.

The critique in this forum has helped me enormously so I have to thank you all for that.

This weekend gone I was fortunate enough to catch another crash! This time Haga going down at Clearways. I wont post up the whole set but you can see them on my flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/polarityphotos/

As always, tear them to shreds :thumbs:

They're all great, with the weakest two being Noriuki Haga's crash (awkward crop, out of focus) and the last one (crop, railing).

 

Thanks Stone. Your right about the haga shot. But when it comes to crashes you cant really be choosey obviously I would have preffered them to be in focus, but I wasnt going to leave them out!

Ive got the full crash sequence on my flickr and about 50% are in focus

The railing your right, I noticed its at a slant which is really going to ug me now!!

Cheers for the feedback matey its much appreciated
