Aussie Drift Day

[Matt Mead]

Went out to Oran Park today and got myself a media pass which makes things alot easyer. I used higher shutter speed (1/125 instead of the usually 1/80) then normal and im really happy with the results compared to some of my older stuff. Images where shoot using canon 350d with 55-250 f4-5.6 is lense.

Please let me know what you think

The one that catches my eye is #7. I like that it's composed so I can see a bit more where the car will be going next. The inclusion of the apex of the corner in the frame provides a bit more context of location than the others do. Unless the track is hideous, don't be afraid to shoot looser.

thanks for the kind words...much appreciated ;)

i use to shoot alot looser before...but ppl seemed to like a tighter crop...

i think i need to do a mixture of both tight and loose :)

thanks again
