Some photos from Knockhill

Post by JohnStewart » Sun Jun 28, 2009 12:16 pm

Yesterday wasn't the best day for taking photos, so didn't get take as much as I usually do, and those that I did take didn't turn out too well.

I've uploaded mine here:

Drilled number plate:

Several Caterhams only had one headlight working - maybe take out the bulbs to save weight ;)

Probably to let more air into the radiator/oil cooler etc. :)

(that's why I think Mike will do fine, that and his lack of imagination). :roll: :lol:

Nice shootin' John. Do you use the IS for panning shots or just turn it off?

P.S. all the cool kids wear Canon. :thumbsup

I don't know driving in another way which isn't risky. Each one has to improve himself. Each driver has its limit. My limit is a little bit further than other's.

My 70-200 doesn't have IS to switch on ;), but the 100-400 IS has a panning mode which I do use most of the time.

Hey Mass - thanks for looking for me - I was out and about with Dave (Rag_it) who was showing me how to take photographs. Having not seen him for a while we stood around and had a good chat, and before I knew it I had to head for home!

Next time though :thumbsup
