    Hi guys,

    We recently got a website started up for us, a group of lads, in order to showcase our cars and also to post some features we may do. I take a lot of drifting photographs mainly, might not be of interest to you but at the same time, it might be.

    I'm not a professional photographer so try my best with these, but some I feel came out well.

    Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas for the site if possible!

    Www.goodluggage.net

    Cheers,

    All I have is an EOS 30d with a sigma 70-200 f2.8 or else the kit 18-55 lense. For some of the older shots I was using a sigma 70-300 lense, cheepo jobbie. They have to do until i can afford my 7d!!

    The eos is a serious piece of kit some great shots but get the camera out of auto mode and play around with it more! crop the drift cars at angle if ya know what I mean keep it up. Have you been playing around with the different shutter speeds etc?

    Yeah none of the shots are shot with auto, either manual, shutter or aperture priorities. I kinda went for the idea of getting some of the track in the frame to give the pictures a bit more definition so that it tells exactly what/where they are going. I like to try different things each round so who knows what i mohr get this one! Wet weekend so will be different!

    I looked up diy camera covers for the rain and now have a set of rain pants that I am going to cut up and be able to cover my camera that way! Hope i might get some nice shots with the water!
