Vivaldi Racing

BSB round 6 - Mallory Park, Ollie Bridewell.

Comments welcome.

Hi, to get a bit more of a feel of the speed, maybe try dropping the shutter speed from 500th down to about 100th or even 80th of a second and pan along with the rider. This requires a bit more practice, but the grass in the background will show movement, and the spokes in the wheels will blur out. Maybe best practicing this with a digital, so as not to burn so much film.

I would even drop it down to 60th and it will show very well. I shoot race cars all the time at 1/60th, but I use mono-pod.

Thanks for looking and commenting. I should admit that the shutter speed and aperture is from memory only - it was probably 1/500th, or maybe 1/250th. I've tried slower than that and know I will need a lot more practice before I get something worthwile ;-) Cheers, Eric.

Thanks for looking. I'm going to need a lot more practice to get down to 1/60th! One day... Cheers, Eric.
