Looks like 1,2,3 are all a bit under-exposed. I'm not using a calibrated monitor here at work so I could be wrong. Shooting the white cars is tricky for the sensors. I usually put my camera in M and find the correct exposure for the the section of track I'm shooting without a car on it, using the histogram.

Yes I have to agree with you, they are dark on my moniter here at work too. I actually think that is a result of PP. I have a new moniter at home and obviously it is making a mess of my PP.

I like #1. It's a really nice scene-setter. The others are well-executed, but there's a sameness to them. At each location you shoot, look for something more to differentiate that scene from the others.

My $.02.

Thanks Bob for your comments. I will keep that in mind for the next one. Had I known that was you I would have at least spoken. I started to speak anyway but with about 23 minutes left in the race I did not want to distract you. I look forward to some of your shots. Since you have shot Barber, I want to ask you about shooting turn 13 at the bottom of the hill. I spent a lot of time there during the SCCA event so that I could get it right for this event but I can't seem to get anything right there. What did you do?

BTW I also corrected the screw up in PP on 1-3 and re-upload them. I think they look much better now.
