Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Great pics.

Not the sort of camera you want to be really taking to a Rally with no weather seal :)

Hows the sensor liking the red dust? :)

Thanks to limited access and the 400mm zoom I never got any dust on the sensor, plus hiding it under my shirt just after the cars went by seemed to work... Next time I might invest in a weather proof cover!

Thanks for looking!

Not sure how well the weather proof cover would work. A carrier bag after they pass or the technique you were using probably works best.

Cheers for the comments!

Makes me wonder why the photogs want to get so close when they are carrying equilavent or bigger lenses, but ohwell I didn't mind except when there were atleast 20 in front of me??? Thats when I decided to hit the road and go home for some beers!!!

Anyway there is always next year!

Cheers

Ilike the shots they are good.

How do you find the 400mm lens?

Do you think that this would be powerful enough for surf photography
