My Gold Cup shots from Monday - At long last!!!

[Matt Sayle]

Right, at long last I have got round to doing my pictures! I ran out of memory on the computer hence the delay.

Anyway, time to quit the jibba jabba fool and post some shots!

1. Soggy Chevron

2. Intersting overtake

3. Porsche having a splashin' time!

4. Escort doing a proper job

5. Gutted it is a smidge blurry

6. Pushing on in the early morning light

C and C please.

Thank you very much,
Matt

#1 - I like the simplicity and the water running off the car. There isn't really much more to say other than "Nice shot"

#2 - Good capture, it would be better if the other car is in focus, but I know that would have been tricky.

#3 - This one works well with the reflection, but the photog in the background is really distracting, how about a long thin crop?

#4 - Nice 'scort! Horrible background.

#5 - Good idea, certainly worth trying it again though.

#6 - Good pan, the car looks good and it's a bit different due to being on the green stuff rather than the black stuff. It does look like the bottom right is blown out though.

good set as usual, 2 is a good catch, nice reflection in 3 but I keep going back to no 1, cracker. Love the idea of number 5, glad you are still coming up with something fresh

Really like No 1 as I have a soft spot for Chevrons.

Difficult to get both cars sharp in No 2 but well caught anyway

The splash and the reflections in No 3 show just how wet the conditions were. Either a crop or use of the clone to to lose the tog would help

Agree with earlier comment about the background in No 4. Maybe moving position to get a better background would help.

Like the idea behind No 5. Works really well.

 

[Marcus Geezer]

All good and is a shame about number 5. That would have been a cracker otherwise.

 

[Ziploc]

Stunning set. Put the probs with 5 down to your new lens.

Love the Chevy pan, that's spot on. Liking the light in #6 too.
A suggestion for next time you attempt #5 - try to catch the driver looking in his mirror for the eye contact. They won't do it very often, but patience is usually rewarded.

Great set as usual Matt, liking the wet shots.

V3 and V4 are awsome!!! Another set of awsome shots!

[Hunky Dory]

Top shots Matt.
Sadly I missed it due to being away with work :bang:
3 Is my fave, but 1 is a cracker too - I'll mention it to the owner, if I get the chance!

These are spot on Matt. #5 is the only weak one, but you knew that already and the idea is right. I am not adverse to the background in #4 either - it's not like you were taking it in the hills somewhere

Nice set mate, a shame indeed about #5 but a nice idea and well worth having a go at again.
