Japfest pictures thread.
I figured I'd start a pictures thread for Japfest photos...last year we had so many different threads, it may be best if everyone posts them here to keep them all together!
Sun coming up on the way down, always a good sign!!
Chieveley services, nice looking Skyline:
Some convoy pics from Chievely to Chippenham:
Then the queue kicked in!!
Took the opportunity to take some random pics:
Gaz must be the most restless person I've ever seen in a queue of traffic
Time started dragging and these dandelion seeds blew away after this pic was taken...
...and this new one sprouted up where they landed...
Then we finally got moving again;
Finally, some track action...absolutely BEAUTIFUL weather!!
And finally, what we all wanted to watch...drift battle!!

Just a Sony A230...probably cheapest camera you can get!! Although I've got a nice 100-300mm lens on it that I 'borrowed' of the ex's dad...hopefully I can avoid returning ittopgun wrote:Great pics ther bud what camera you using,got to come to JTS next week loads of drifting to watch

Re: Japfest pictures thread.
Cheers mate, I think I just B&W'd it, then bumped the contrast up a bit...it kinda lent itself well to B&W as there's not much going on, I just leant back and tried to get the crowd and the track. I think it may also be on a higher ISO setting hence the grain, or maybe it's just baaadly focused!iLogik wrote:Love this shot, how hard was it to do? dont look lik ejust a normal b+w setting
Either way, I found taking photos of stuff like this is so tricky...for every useable photo you get a good 4 or 5 duff ones!!
