Pictures from my 'ring weekend

[raf_gti]

After spending god knows how long selecting and PPing my images I am fairly pleased with some of these, especially the panning shots as it was the first time I had tried this

The WW2 shots were taken from a festival in Roermond, Holland and the runway shots were taken at the old RAF base nearby.

Gentle C&C welcome





Not the best picture but very cool to see it driving round

Love the pic of the two knackered bikers and the battalian cmdr with the pipe!

Not sure about the wide angle stuff... I started to feel a bit sea sick. (But that's probably just me).

Ship Ahoy!

Apologies for the sea-sickness I'm new to the UWA so still having a play about, I like the effect it does at the moment, not sure how long that will last for tho!

Used in the right circumsatnces its great. personally I like the porsche and runway ones..I also like the way you thought about the roundabout pic. but my fave of yours recently is on your other thread.
Like all your other WW2 pics they are pic even i could have taken (technically speaking) but its one of those time and place photos you always wish you were the one there at that time with your camara..


great feel to it, people wise..

Thank You

It was one of those 'GOTCHA' moments, I knew straight away when I clicked that I got his expression spot on, I think he was wondering why I was grinning!

That is the best and worst things about photography, you can spend an age trying to find the picture and experimenting but it just doesn't work out, then on the other hand simply walking about snapping away you get your killer pic.

I've only had my camera 6 months but I'm getting there, one of these days I will go out and not to forget to change my ISO from 1600 on a sunny day, get out of AV mode for fast shooting and have the right lens at the right time!
