    Goodwood Festival of Speed

    I went on the Friday. Grubby overcast weather in the morning and shooting into the light during the afternoon, not exactly the best conditions for using a 100 - 400mm, but I was surprised how well the lens coped.

    I couldn't resist this Mercedes W196 Grand Prix car, shot at 1/160sec, f5.6 ISO 100.

    Colin,
    Great shot, see it is that lens...
    Love the panned background and the wheel blur.

      I'm down at Goodwood manning our stand (Alvis, new car launch), so haven't had time to see anything.
      Struggling with technology.......................

          Hi Colin,

          Great picture - really like the feeling of speed. You must have a few more pics, so don't be shy - post some more for those petrol-heads that couldn't go to Goodwood this year!

          TTFN,

            Hi Colin
            This one is my favourite, beautiful car and well captured.
            An event we have been meaning to go to for the past two years...always next time

              Hi Stan

              Buy the tickets well in advance and go on the Friday. The weekend is just too busy for photography - at best, you'll get one spot near the straw bale and not move all day, but on the Friday, you have the chance for different locations.

              The Goodwood Revival Meeting is in September. A little bit more action, as it is circuit racing.

                Very nice shot, the panning it just right, and the lack of anything modern in the background really makes this shot
