Hello ... Thought I'd share some selects from shooting my first drifting event. C&C are welcome. I also noticed that there's a bit color shifting after I posted the pictures online. For more pictures feel free to visit the gallery here:

Action / pan images seem a bit soft. On the right track though. I'm not wild about the "gratuitous" angle on your statics. What's the point?

Normally.. I like to keep my critique and comments on a professional level, so forgive my weakness. Last photo... OMG. She is nothing short of spectacular!!! :)

Agree with John. All of your action stuff seems to have about the same angle. You might be tilting your head without even knowing it.... I don't think the angle is drastic, but something that should be noted for the future.

And Canadian women are ... um.... "muy bueno".

Oh my - if the next to the last shot is what I think it is I am totally envious of the camera/boom attachment. I've been wanting to do a drift/rig shot for too damn long now and that is exactly where I was thinking about putting the arm!

Oh and the last shot is definitely muy bueno.

Mike, here's the close up shot of the rig. They were also using suction cup w/ ball head I think holding a small camcorder on the hood.

Great pics. I like the angles, especially with Marco's car (the red G35). I was there too!

Different angle from the same crash
