Greyhound Racing

[Buttkicker]

Hi Folks
I have been wanting to try my hand at a bit of Greyhound racing for a few years, and yesterday the weather was reasonable when I set off Grrrrr
soon as I got there the weather turned cold and very cloudy, and it did not help matters when the sun did make a fleeting appearance that I was looking into it
any way managed to get a few that I was pleased with

very good
#1 and #2 are best

(which one is you btw?, did you win?) :nuts:

Good starting point.

How much cropping and what did you learn for next time?

 

[Buttkicker]

Did not have a bet... but must say they did a nice sunday Lunch

Cropping is minimal on the bulk of what I shot...
what did I learn
Lots of swearing from the losing Punters

things to look out for next time, is go with better lighting as had a lot of drab ones
and try focus on the lead dog

You really get a sense of the action with the 1st & 2nd shots, nice
No trap shots?

1st shot for me, very nicely done

Sounds a worthwhile trip then.

I would add panning to the try nextime list.

Still excellent start.

Cheers guys
I did a couple of races panning and they were not great
this one was about the best of my panning efforts

tried some at a much lower shutter speed but they are not good
