Rally cars

This weekend I went to a rally.
I had a press pass so I could get to all the nice spots (close to the cars!)!
It's really hard to photograph really, really, REALLY fast moving cars with my camera, I did the best I can.

(I got a bit too close here, officials warned me)

(I think this is one of the best shots of the day)

(look at the rear tire!)

Later in the afternoon I went to this stage, there was a small jump in it.

Here is the group of people I was running around with most of the day, they all laughed at my camera with their really expensive gear. The guy on the left is a friend of mine, he had a small camera as well.

Those are awesome. Rally is awesome. You made the best of difficult shots.

I always wanted to shoot a race or something that moves fast and is pretty But there aren't many of them over here... at least not close enough.

You got some nice photographs. My favorite I think is the same as yours. It's cool that you went close of the action... the closer you are, the best it will look!

Good work!

NL! Man, as always you get amazing results with a toy camera!!!

You realize you are costing me about $1800 US? You're the one who is making me think I need to buy the Canon 20D! I'll never get there on talent alone--I need to spend a ton of money to compensate for my mediocre skillz...

What camera are you using, NL?

Awesome shots.

Nos.

I'm using a minolta f300. I think it's a discontinued model already...

It's my first digital camera, and I actually like it a lot.
I would love one of those fancy DSLR cameras though...
