#1 for me Matty.
Nice to see a little MX5 mixing it with them in #3.

Nice shots. Number 1 is very good, slow shutter speed, sharp image, good panning technique and colour saturaion.

2 & 3 seems a little soft, 4 is good also.

What setup you using?

You can make a good few dollars from Hill Climbs. Everyone wants photos of their cars. If your not selling them already, give it some consideration.

Well done.

thanks mate,

i am sure the softness comes from the relative movement of the car in relation to the direction of camera pan, as the car isn't moving directly perpendicular to the panning direction, probably i just had the shutter open too long, but i was going more for the idea of motion rather than freeze frame shots like the yellow monaro.

I only just noticed this, but you can see teh drivers face in the passenger mirror of the monaro... pretty cool i thought.

I'm with them.

I like #1 - nice panning action, but car body is sharp
- wheels showing lotion blur
- LHS rear wheel off the ground
- exposure seems spot-on

Maty, I like these shots a lot and you have done a good job with keep some motion in the wheels. I like #1 and 2 more and not saying there is anything wrong with the others but yeh like the first 2. I know at times these can be a bit uneventfull as they go racing by, but well done.
Cheers

good pics!

The bit of critique I can offer up is there appears to be a fence or something in the panning blur in #2 behind the Monaro - I pulled the image into photoshop quickly, and a bit of a crop taking out the top 1/4 of the image (just below the 2nd sort-of-horizontal line) cleaned things up nicely... well thats what I reckoned
