That's a great shot Kyle, I'm sure the Bathurst promoters would love it too.

Kyle,

great shot, love the panning you got here, car is nice and sharp. I don't comment much on motorsport but I thought I'd give you my $0.02 :roll:

For me, the blurred light posts in the rhs are distracting and take away from the hills and fence. Not sure if it is possible but if you could get a bit more detail of the driver, that would be nice.

Lastly, you need a sensor clean.

Like I said, great shot, just a few little niggles.

Cheers,

André

You know it's funny André, as soon as you mentioned the light posts / power poles I had another look at that part of the image and noticed the dust bunny, then read the rest of your post ;)

Nice shot mate.

Great colours and contrast and nice and sharp. I like that it's not 'bullseyed' tight in the centre of the image. A good really nice image in really harsh light. Well done!
