Great work, very cool pictures!

What gear do you use?

I tried to get some usable footage to maybe live-stream while I race with the 'EOS Canon Movie Record' tool.. It literally recorded my footage at about 5fps.. which is pathetic, other people using the 1000D and this tool have managed about 24fps.. I have no idea how! Any way, here is my test video

and here is another 1000D video using the same stuff and managing way more fps than me -

editt - found out the reason It was such low FPS was because I had the SD card in the camera while I was recording to the PC.. hitting 21/22 fps now, yey!

Don...

Here's some random scenery from my road trip.

Lost for words Spankmeyer, stunning pictures.

I would do anything to get someone teach me how to take pics like that...and ofc how to photoshoop them to look 20% cooler

Awesome!

Were u driving while you shot the second one?
Or maybe just a very strong wind?

EDIT:
Taken close to Rivage-corner (Spa), but facing the other direction



And a pissed off guy who ruined my shot of an helicopter

Might be a bit of a car overload, I am loving using my new canon 7D

Got the camera out, first time in ages. Wish I had a dslr

Quote from rich uk :

first time in ages

no matter what - it's always sunset for the first time

Awesome stuff, guys!

For those who like aircrafts, I've been to the TAM's Wings of a Dream Museum last weekend. Here's the result:






The full set.

What I did this afternoon:

Pictures lag my computer, half of them didnt load, but the ones that did were cool

Every time I visit this thread I'm blown away by the quality of the pictures!!! A ridiculous proportion of pics in this thread would not look out of place in a magazine...

Awesome flash work, Don.

Awesome shot Don!

Was that with an on-camera flash or studio (ring-)flash/strobe?

Been trying out some HDR stuff.
I really need a tripod !

I'd guess from the tyre shadows it's a single bare bulb speedlight from high camera left, nearly (?) 90 degrees to the subject? And yeah, he's good.

Pretty sure the flash is on the right side now that I take a better look
The shadow between left and middle wheel, is cast by the middle one.
Look at the spoke shadows.

EDIT: Oh wait no. I think you're right. Totally confused now.

EDIT2: Flash left-high and reflector on the right? Don't get how else the right side of his face could be lit.

spankmeyer is right, only one speedlight from topleft...

I can't wait for the autumn to come so that the rallies will look a bit different...
