Ed, Awesome Shots.

Glad you posted shots of the Mopar car, that thing is very cool looking. Sorry to hear about the weather. Is this a event you attend every year? If so, I hope you have better luck next year.

Again, Very Nice Shots, Scott.


Thanks. This is the first time I have been to Colorado, and only the 2nd event I've shot with the 1D (mark I) after I sold my 10D.

Yeah, the weather sucked. I really wished they would have continued racing, I would have had some awesome shots if they started racing through the fog and snow!

I was using a Canon 1D, with a 20mm prime and 50mm prime for the close shots, and a 100-300mm for the far shots.

Interesting that over Sharpening is becoming acceptable in Web photography ... a style of it's own ... that works ... but _might_ not look great in prints ? Most Pros would use the Unsharp Mask instead of the Sharpen Filter. Multiple applications of low Unsharp Mask is usually preferable to heavy use of Sharpen or Sharpen More ...

Either way ... GREAT PHOTOS! ... Mako, ex-motorsports pro photographer

You are correct, kind of. These photos have gone through a 3-pass unsharp mask process, not the sharpen filter.

Thanks for your comments. What kind of motorsports did you used to shoot?
