I really need to get to a Hillclimb some time, those shots look fantastic.

Been trying to improve my processing of late and hopefully the use of the adjustment brush isn't too obvious on this one:

I had no external flash and the sun was quite harsh, personally it looks fine but it would be good to get feedback.

I've got a Tamron SP AF 70-300 F/4-5.6 Di VC USD and so far I've taken a few decent images but they never seem to be particularly sharp, I'm also pretty disappointed in the quality of jpegs from the camera but I think I am just being harsh on the setup I have compared to what other people have. That's all the excuses out of the way, now for some pictures

I don't like getting soaked but rain makes things more interesting:

Nice, I really should get off my arse and get to a circuit this year. I'm not far from castle Combe so no excuse really!

A few from Abingdon Airshow last weekend (7D with a 70-200 and cheap 2.0x TC, not great to be honest!):

Rally Day would be a good one to go to, hopefully I'll be able to make it this year.

Very happy with this one, it's 'only' taken at 1/100 but looks slower because of the grass.

My first attempt at sports photography. Two of my friends took part and I said I'd go along to watch and take the camera.

Would like some critique as sports is really new to me. Kit was 7d + 70-200 f2.8.

I think a nice panning shot would have made them a little more interesting

PA474 gets around a bit, it did a flyover at Donington a couple of weeks ago:

It's the BBMF Lanc, which is the only one flying in the country. It covers a lot of ground during the season! There was only one other flying which is in Canada, I don't know if that has changed.

They've also changed the paint scheme this year, it's no longer the Phantom of the Ruhr. It's now Thumper mkIII which was a 617 Lanc.

I'd like to go to an Airshow this year, any recommendations?

Was going through some pics while off work ill on Tuesday and found this one; don't think I could have lined it up any better if I tried!
