Mordor...

On the way home from gym the other night, I went through a huge thunder storm just past Kyalami. I got home, grabbed my gear and got my dad to drive me out that way again. Unfortunately by the time we got there the storm had passed on, but I did manage to get this 1 good shot.

Johannesburg International Motor Show

Nasrec Convention centre hosted the 2008 Johannesburg International Motor Show from the 1st to 9th of November. My dad and I went along on the first Sunday of the show. Although it was pretty busy, witht he public only being allowed to attend on the weekends, I still managed to get some pretty decent shots...

Super Series - 25 October - Kyalami South Africa

a while ago i considered renting a lens from a shop in Pretoria, OutDoorPhoto, so for the last round of the Pro Tour at zwartkops I rented a 400 f5.6. I wasnt overly happy with it, as it seemed to battle to track and focs on cars moving towards me through the corners. anyway, i rented it again on the 25th for the Super Series at Kyalami. once again it seemd to battle, but i did manage to get a few keepers ; )

2 rollers from last weekend

shot these 2 rolling shots fo my buddy Shaun Mooloo's S3 last sunday. we were on a charity breakfast run for the Kitty and Puppy haven in Bramley. i couldnt believe my eyes when I saw my damn camera battery go from "full" to half to empty in like 10 minutes, was really pissed off >: (

these 2 came out pretty nicely though before the battery died. shot with my Sigma 10-20.

new glass, 70-200 porn...

so about 3 weeks ago i picked up my dream lens, the canon 70-200 f2.8 IS. all i can say is wow!!! image quality is superb, as would be expected from an L series lens. its pretty heavy, but feels solid and will last you a life time if looked after properly. i finally got to take it out ot the track last saturday, so check out the last 2 pics for some samples ; )

VW Club Gymkana

last weekend the club held a gymo at zwartkops. what i was pretty keen about was that it was a night race, and i;ve been waiting for a night shoot to try out some second curtain sync techniques : )

cars in the park

missing last years event, i was pretty excited to go to cars in the park at zwartkops this year. brad and jess picked me up and we went through. it was super busy with alot of cars, some good, alot bad. its a crying shame what some people think looks good in terms of styling and modding their cars, but i guess to each his own.

Super Series Kyalami

got to shoot with one of the other pro photos canon 400 f2.8 as well as his sigma 12-300 f2.8. the 400 is a beat of a lens, so damn heavy, cant ever imagine handholding that thing.

as with all my other posts, the full set of shots can be found on [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/eedubz]my flickr[/url]
