What a monster! Nice panning, although DoF is a little too shallow I think.

Could do with a little more contrast, saturation and exposure for some more punch too.

Haven't seen one of these babies in a looong time - love it more in black.
Sigh, I'm all thumbs when it comes to panning .... :redface:

Thanks for the comments ST... my setting was Shutter Priority at 1/100s,
giving me opening of f/14. Lens was set to 70mm... So I think more of
motion blur.. the car as well as my camera's. The 'moster' was fast!:0

Maybe I'll do more works in PP for the contrast & saturation...

By the way... Round 2 is scheduled on the 25/26 May..
Grandstand ticket last Sunday was RM10/-
and Paddock Pass was RM50/-
-- compare that to F1 at RM1,xxx & RM17,xxx respectively..:?

Yes... beauties...
I was there to cover the classic cars category only, actually...
:)
Have a few shots of other cars, OT if I put them here..

Were you there bro Noordin?

ST,

This one I shot with 1/400s @ f/7.1 (ISO200)
with a dash of Jayhan's velvia-like PP..

The '69 Vette is truly a beautiful car. Looks like the car has been souped up with Hemi engine. The big bump on the bonnet is a give away. Love the engine sound. Now I need to get the missus to agree to go to Sepang on 25-26 May.:rasta:
