    Disappointing day

    Anyone else ever get those really disappointing days where it's damp / dark and grey and nothing you do seems to bring the work to life? I had one of those yesterday at Oulton Park, bad enough to consider wiping the card entirely - unfortunately it's not something I can do so I had to spend the day trying to 'polish a turd' if you get my drift.

    Anyway - here are a few of the okay'ish ones. Usual set up of 1Dmk4 70-200 2.8mkii / 1.4 mkiii extender.

    #1 1/50, f/8, iso 100, 280mm the classic Oulton background


    #2 1/500, f/4, iso 160, 280mm what better place to 'slide off' than in front of a whole group of trainee marshals


    #3 1/500, f/4, iso 160, 170mm what do you mean 'product placement'?


    #4 1/100, f/5, iso 100, 160mm young Lucy showing the lads how it's done


    #5 1/500, f/4.5, iso 800, 165mm jelly babies and a swig of Mr Muscle will knock anyone out for lunch


    #6 1/500, f/4.5, iso 640, 140mm Sometimes a good smile is all it takes to make the world a better place!


    Thanks for looking and the rest if your interested are

      I like the first one, good sense of speed.
      I sympathise with your feelings, I felt like that after a night in London this week. Fortunately Lightroom is able to help!

              #1 is my favorite mate. Like the framing and you know i'm a sucker for a slowy...(Ooh suit you sir) :)

              I had a disappointing day at the Porsche Festival. Not because of the weather and that, I was expecting more from the day. I was looking forward to that event all year long. Left feeling short changed.
