It's not all about 5am sunrise.... spent a chilly 30mins building this in the countryside at 11pm....

Took these at the Gumball 3000 event in Edinburgh. First time properly shooting in the night so would really appreciate any feedback about the night photos & how to improve them?

Didn't get a chance to get too up close in the night due to lots of security present but went early the next day & was able to get a bit closer to the cars but had to rush because the rain came pouring down

Any other feedback is more than welcome, album is here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/_something_creative_...

That's amazing!

I hate being thick.

What he hasn't shown you is that before they swapped the wheels for the trial fit this was actually a khaki coloured Austin Allegro.



Estate.


Brown nylon interior.



(I'll apologise now to those of a sensitive disposition who may have been mentally scarred for life by the image that may have brought to mind.)

Do you mean something like this:

Aaargh!

Close enough. Not quite an Estate.

Iirc there was a "chocolate" brown colour used for one year.

Great panning shots, especially the civic nose to bumper shot.

Any tips for a newbie?

Make your shutter speed the same as its mph if moving with subject - and then lower from there...at your peril. Jon can comment on his super crisp static position panning shots technique! I suspect it will also include 'ditch all the soft shots' - as we all get them
