WEC at Silverstone

[benjo09]

So I've always been into motorsport but this was the first time I've photographed it. Was enticed in by the cheap Friday tickets and what a day it was! Just wish I'd stayed for the weekend!

I've only just got around to editing these pictures having massively streamlined my work flow recently. As this was my first time shooting motorsport and my first time at Silverstone, it was a day spent experimenting more than anything and finding my way around the circuit. I've done the 40 Years of Williams day and Goodwood FoS since so my technique has definitely improved since taking these. Its also the first time I've played with colours to try to get the cars to pop.

Looking forward to any comments good or bad. I know these aren't up to the standard of some on here but I'm keen to learn!
