witolda_maruszewska 0 Posted December 19, 2004 A Mk2 Escort tackles a tight section during the 2004 Rockingham Stages rally... This event (held on a very dull, murky and cold day) was my first attempt at rally photography, so it was a journey into the unknown - as a result, I'd really appreciate some opinions.

rob.mccormack 0 Posted December 22, 2004 I like the pronounced lean and the obvious rolling evident on the rear tyre wall especially - indicative of a hard cornering effort. Perhaps a tighter crop might have been interesting, or the shot taken more front on might generate more impression of the pace. Link to comment
witolda_maruszewska 0 Posted December 24, 2004 I know what you mean about the tighter crop, Rob, and it is a valid point, but I've noticed that rally photographers tend to sompose more loosely than race photographers in order to put the car into context - which is what I did try and do. Perhaps it is down to personal taste... Regarding the angle of view, with most of that area being a live stage, there wasn't that much of a choice of safe places to shoot this corner from. Thanks for the useful comments though - something to bear in mind for next time. Link to comment
