Nice images here and on Flickr too Nick - hope your mojo has returned. We all are looking for different things and I don't see anything wrong with experimenting to try and get a more abstract image. I especially like your forth one of the F3's at 1/20th second but I personally think it is what you like which is most important. Although your EXIFs aren't shown here I see from Flickr that you've also got the MC-20 teleconverter for a bit more reach - have you noticed any significant changes in focus speed or IQ?Hello, long time no post Not had much of a photo mojo over the winter. However Racing has started again at Oulton so here are a couple from last weekends events.
Also been experimenting with slow shutter speeds to get some abstract images, I like them but I suspect a bit of marmite
Even though my first Panasonic was the G6 I traded it many years ago. However I've been looking for a camera to be able to hold and zoom with a single hand and was reminded that the G5 & G6s had the zoom button. Bought it a couple of months ago and am currently comparing this G6 and 14-42 & 45-175 PZ lenses against other Panasonic bridge cameras to find the best compromise kit for me. For visits to the pits it is just the job, but technology has improved since its launch so is not ideal for action shots.Oooo A G6 out in the wild (I was looking for a G6 or G5 to replace my nearly dead G3
'fraid not, but I'm sure it'll be fun. Don't know whether you'll need to pray for rain or sunAnyone else going? (slim chance I know)
Great image! It's a shame about that log or whatever is obscuring much of the bottom half of the car.From the start of the West Australian gravel rally season...
ISO 200, 1/15, f13
In what way? I feel the log assists with giving a sense of place and permanence, amongst the tall tress that are a mere shadow as the car passes by.Great image! It's a shame about that log or whatever is obscuring much of the bottom half of the car.

Yeah, I can see that POV. For me, though, I'd just like to see more of the car, and I feel the trees do plenty to give a sense of place and speed.In what way? I feel the log assists with giving a sense of place and permanence, amongst the tall tress that are a mere shadow as the car passes by.

It really is a matter of repetition, luck, guesswork and repetition. And in this case, manual focus.Yeah, I can see that POV. For me, though, I'd just like to see more of the car, and I feel the trees do plenty to give a sense of place and speed.
Obviously one can't control the entire environment in this situation; you have to work with what you've got. I have no idea how you get such sharpness on the car while moving the camera. I've tried it a few times with terrible results. I imagine that like with anything else it's a matter of investing the time to practice.
Regardless of any quibble, it really is a crackerjack image. The log is just a small impediment that makes it score a 99 rather than a 100...but I'm not photo contest judge, so take my opinion for what it is.
