Thanks! Up until a week ago I was just using some text with a very weak opacity. Really, I don't know what the right thing is for a watermark or not. It sounds very presumptuous but I'd be upset if any of my pictures were used without my permission as I upload my photos to instagram and had a...

Thanks for all your feedback! Someone might correct me here, but I don't think it's possible to get the entire car sharp at a slow shutter speed panning shot when they're coming at you at a angle? Like, there will always be one part of the car moving towards you faster than another? If that's...

Evening All, First post sharing some photos here, I've been photographing since 2018 using a Panasonic Lumix Fz72 but upgraded in 2021 to a 90D and have been attending the GT every year since. Below is a few shots I took on the Saturday (Qualifying day) as it was forecasted (accurately) that...

Amazingly sharp!

It's all health and safety now. To be honest this is probably me being too safe talking all about the spectator zones but yeah the organisers go heavy on the "Do not tresspass, it will get the stages cancelled" but its been this way since it started. I had the same thoughts as you then first...

Great shots there! I haven't ever considered beacon fell due to having to get there at 7am.. unless people sneak in somewhere else?

Thought I'd update this for future reference.. The Rally came and went over the weekend, I prepared my location over the week ensuring I didn't cross anywhere with a road closure. Marshals were happy enough me being there and they updated us on the events... Which was unfortunate cause it was...

Thank you very much for your input! I had a feeling it would be that way with the marshals given what I've witnessed. I won't be crossing the stage, only accessing it from the same side and if I were to move it would be going back out and around. I hope you weren't offended by my choice of...

Haha I meant for their website! This is the confusion in which I'm trying to clear up.. if they're "closed" why do I see groups lining the routes and in clear view of marshals. I'm trying to crack the unspoken code of rallying, I get the gist that it's "Publicly we want people here, but if you...

Hi folks, after a bit of advice. There's a closed road rally coming up soon, I've been to it before however the two official spectator areas are pretty rubbish in terms of photography. I've always played it safe but I've realised that this doesn't seem the usual thing for rallying and if I'm to...

Those L lenses really do give a sharpness like no others! I like the duration of the thread, seeing you progress from more accessible cameras to the investments which look to have handsomely paid off!

Awesome! Best of luck to your Lad. I was unfortunately unable to do karting but enjoy the odd trip to Teamsport every now and then. Cameras and Karting, could you find any more expensive hobbies?

I am a beginner so my evaluation might not mean much but I don't think there's anything wrong with faster shutter speeds. Sometimes it's nice enough just to have the subject the car itself. There's a good enough depth of field to seperate them from the background! Nice shots!

These are outstanding, were these from Spectator areas?
