Motorsport can be dangerous, would owners ensure dogs are kept on a lead at all times ;)

Ta, today was a lot of fun, last day of the club championships and the last race was optional fancy dress.

Got to love these wee hooligans ;)

I take it the guy missed you! :eek:

Nice shots as usual Dod. I see set the EV bias to overexpose by a third. Is that common for the sport or just the day?

Sorry, missed this, been a bit busy the last few days.

It varies. I started off manual but the light was changing too often so shifted to Shutter priority. You tend to get a lot of reflections from these guys and it messes up the auto settings so I'll often add in 1/3 or 2/3 depending on how bright it is. Not ideal though as you can end up blowing out the sky a bit as well, or getting overexposed shots when it doesn't need the compensation.

You just really need to be thinking about it all the time and compensating as and when you need it.
 
Thanks for the response (on your birthday and all!).

I asked as I have similar difficulties when taking photos of mountain bike racers in the woods where the light fluctuates wildly. You spend your entire time looking at your histograms!!
