wagner Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 I've decided to challenge myself a bit more when shooting events and not being one of those guys who grows roots and only shoots track side in almost the same spot. http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-WX5nQrX/0/L/_MG_4891-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-jMhBzbQ/0/L/_MG_4898-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-QShSS77/0/L/_MG_4930-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-CrzjcDC/0/L/_MG_4991-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-bFhzS2N/0/L/_MG_5072-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-pTFJmDg/0/L/_MG_5471-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-JZThNs8/0/L/_MG_5525-L.jpg http://waggz.smugmug.com/Cars/2014-NMCA-World-Finals/i-DqRTSkB/0/L/_MG_5524-L.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagner Posted October 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 I've been working on more low angle, high angle, and detail type shots. Sometimes I'm only trying to get certain things in focus while letting other details fade in the distance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farkas Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 What lens are you shooting these with? Don't be afraid to open the lens up and let the aperture do some work for you. Bokeh can be used very tastefully, and can really make the photos pop. I particularly enjoy the 4th and 5th photo you posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I'm doing stuff like this I'm usually shooting in the 2.8-5.6 range in aperture priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbotrio Posted October 24, 2014 Report Share Posted October 24, 2014 Nice shots If I get lucky and we have a slow(er) week at the shop I might join you in Maryland if you are going out. Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
