Yesterday was all about rolling your vehicle… today was about losing your wheels… tires.. and other important parts of your suspension, haha.
\nThe driver above actually completed an additional lap and a half at least before opting out of the race after his tire flew off his buggy.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now take a close look at this shot of Robby… see what he managed to snap off his trophy kart during his race?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now this driver didn’t lose a tire or wheel… However he ran most of the race with this “hood” popped up and blocking most of his view. Hats off to him though… as he didn’t lose his position through the entirity of his view being obstructed. Hahaha.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Now there is nothing wrong with this truck…
\nActually, this is to share another test of extreme motion blur.<\/p>\n

I have a lot of time this weekend to experiment with panning, exposures, etc. I have all the shots I need from Friday – so now it’s time for fun stuff.
\nYesterday I played around with 1\/80 of a second. Today I was determined to beat that.
\nThe shot above is at 1\/40 of a second, at 110mm… completely handheld. Came out pretty gorgeous actually. The bad part is that this kind of motion is almost too extreme for any sort of advertising usage… so, it will most likely stay in my portfolio rather than going to print.<\/p>\n

Speaking of print… I think I have a shot of Corry Weller from Weller Racing in the July issue of QUAD in the K&N Filters ad… someone go check for me…<\/p>\n

One more day of racing at Lake Elsinore for the Lucas Oil Off Road Race Series tomorrow. Should be a lot of fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
