Yes, I'm impressed with this lens big time. I've been warned it might struggle doing action stuff but we will see.

Played with my new 70-200 lens today, totally different to use and will take some learning... http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Columbus-Cars-And-Coffee-2014/i-jBvcM2c/0/L/IMG_8852-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Columbus-Cars-And-Coffee-2014/i-2twmv8f/0/L/IMG_8887-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Columbus-Cars-And-Coffee-2014/i-FWm3Xjr/0/L/IMG_8932-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Columbus-Cars-And-Coffee-2014/i-KSgrwF7/0/L/IMG_8959-L.jpg new pictures start on page 17

Well since I got caught up in the great print killing of 2014 I will be doing a lot more online work. This is a feature I did on Rick's 1972 Duster that was down at Texas this year. After they get this car fully sorted out it will be crushing hopes and dreams. http://www.streetlegaltv.com/features/car-features/car-feature-rick-trunketts-nasty-1972-plymouth-duster-has-boost/ I will post all the other pictures I took later tonight

Well that's a big problem with this country in general, the lack of ability to use logic outside of what Facebook/Twitter/News tells them. When you have people getting their news from Reddit, Facebook, or the Daily Show and basing their life on it things will not end well...

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. Every car company has problems with their product that SHOULD be a massive recall, however, they don't want it to turn into this big deal. I mean, could you imagine all the facebook posts and memes if Honda's junk transmission issue was put out there, all the Ford transmission issues, or euro car electrical problems :gabe: After my wife's time at BMW and my friends that are techs I learned more than I care to think about how different parts of the industry work.

Nice! I want to come up there one night to practice shooting with flash.

Well old boy needs to calm his tits, I'm not there to cut in on his business.

We want to make at least one more of these, its nice getting to shoot for fun and play around. I need to get the track day video done and then I will work on the video for this.

:lolguy: I would hardly call myself famous. It was fun, just need to make sure that track photo guy stays happy. I thought that dude was going to have me thrown out

Thanks for all the kind words, I wish I really could do all the cars that show up justice. I'm far from a pro and all of you get to be my "test bed" for learning what to do. Here soon I'm going to try and shoot with more fill flash so I have less to do in post process. I don't know how many more of these I will make, Ray got his motor Saturday so we are going to put the whore back together soon and I will be a crew guy soon.

I've heard things about him...

Shutting this down to prevent any issues and let Anthony do his thing

Wife and I had a blast shooting this event. I even got her to do a ride along with Scott and that video is GREAT. I will work on getting that footage up, it will feature a few CR Cone Killas http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Buckeye-Miata-Autocross-61714/i-QDJCWrB/0/L/IMG_5795-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Buckeye-Miata-Autocross-61714/i-wJnnQCZ/0/L/IMG_5944-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Buckeye-Miata-Autocross-61714/i-BQ9r3kz/0/L/IMG_6123-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Buckeye-Miata-Autocross-61714/i-gcRpbxh/0/L/IMG_8154-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/Buckeye-Miata-Autocross-61714/i-FmLmLWX/0/L/IMG_8203-L.jpg Full Gallery

I edit pictures like I play video games, I just mash buttons and hope things turn out ok.

I have only had to shoot things that talk 2 times, hated both of them. I'm still trying to shoot everything in full manual all the time, but I usually get pissed off and bounce back to AP.

Shooting at cars and coffee can be rough, early morning, bright sun that is direct, cars parked close together, and the constant threat of photobombing people. All your stuff looks great, I would just try to shoot at like 100 ISO, play with the white balance, and make sure you are not totally over exposed. I tend to shoot in AP while there and stop up or down based on the shot I'm going for. It can be hard because a picture might look great on the camera, but when you pull it things look way different When I edit my stuff I try to knock down the stuff that looks over exposed and add some lighting since I don't shoot with fill flash yet.

I would talk to a chassis shop like Holt Racecars, Moorespeed, or PK Race cars.

This is why I don't like to swim in the ocean or any other large natural body of water. There is shit out there we have no idea about that might or might not want to taste human to see if they like it. This has been all over this week: http://news.discovery.com/animals/sharks/shark-eat-shark-are-great-white-sharks-cannibals-140611.htm Something killed and ate a freaking 9 foot great white shark. Could be a whale, could be a bigger shark, could be a Krackin, could have been Kristie Alley, but no matter what it was that's some scary stuff...

Noooo, you start throwing that word around and people get upset...

Welcome to the new world where common sense has been removed from schools, and replaced with zero tolerance and government stupidity.

Cheap, fast, and racing don't mix not matter what you are doing.

I don't think those turds at the Ohio Mile could toss this Bentley for not being up to their rules :fuckyeah: http://www.dragzine.com/features/car-features/dz-exclusive-steven-niemantas-stunning-3000-hp-twin-turbo-bentley/

Wow.... A full chassis car *might* have done better, but even then it would have been touch and go.
