I normally spend most of my time photographing motorsport but whilst at the Goodwood Revival I tried to make a real effort to expand my skills, starting with taking advantage of all the people in period dress. 1) Girls 4 by Nick Gage, on Flickr 2) Girls 3 by Nick Gage, on Flickr 3) DA 2 by...

Went to the Silverstone Classic over the weekend and they had two Spitfire's from the Old Flying Machine Company doing displays over lunch time. Watching a pair of Spitfires doing a low(ish) pass down the Hanger Straight was a sight to behold and the sound is just incredible...

Yeah a half hour drive round the corner was much more appealing that a 2 hour drive across country :) Sent Roger on the Saturday tho.

Yes I was down at luffield, they are about half way through the corner, the sun was sinking behind the grandstand which was casting a big shadow across the track which made it difficult to catch the cars when they were still lit with natural light.

As well as the on track action there was a display from a Mustang and Spitfire during Sundays lunch break. It was a fantastic sight to see and I happened to be in the right place for their display. This is the first time I've taken pictures of planes in flight. Pair 3 by Nick Gage, on...

I'll be there, got my accreditation through a couple of weeks ago. Joining instructions were in the e-mail, basically they dont send you a ticket just a form you fill in and take to media sign on which is outside the circuit. There you sign on and get given your wrist band, you then go to the...

Thanks :) Yes the car in picture 3 was smoking but managed to last till the end of the race. I think number 1 is my favourite of all the shots I took that day. They were all taken from Lodge except number 6 which was from the start finish straight. I started the race at Old Hall but...

Have made the pictures bigger to make critique and enjoyment easier :)

I'm after a new bag to transport my gear in, I don't have a huge amount, Body, 2 lenses, batteries, memory cards and various cloths. I am looking for a messenger style bag and ideally wouldn't like it to look too much like a camera bag. I have had a look and the Crumpler Messenger Boy 4000...

Are you running Mcafee Anti virus? They released a patch last week that caused all sorts of problems. Mainly crashed XP SP3 machines with various symptoms. One of the main symptons was it turned it back to the classic view (grey, simple menu's) rather than the started blue and green of XP...

Thanks for the advice. It is Leighton Buzzard Camera Club, not sure if storing is the right word but they do seem to spend a lot of time here. I'll make sure to post some of the results after the event (not until the end of feb) Thanks once again you've all been most helpful Nick

Yeah we have the lights already as Dad is storing them for the local camera club and we are trying to see if we can book out a studio at the local college where my dad is currently doing a photography course. Anyone have any views on the lens options?
