Stiggy's Gallery. Updated 20/8/12 - Hillclimb

[Stiggy]

Hello and welcome to my gallery. I will mainly post my motorsport photos in this thread, although I may post some other random pictures in here. I'm not the greatest photographer and I only use a handheld digital camera - no fancy DSLR here (I use an Olympus SP600UZ).
Here is the link to my Flickr page

Here are some pictures from a local Hillclimb held on the weekend. It was my first chance to test out my new camera at a motorsport event, and I think the pictures turned out well for a beginner like me (I'm a bit disappointed with the amount of noise in some pictures though). I've slightly edited these photos using Photoshop CS2. I hope you enjoy looking at these pictures;

Nice shots Stig! My favourites are the first and second shots, really liking the place that you shot on the first one.

Wow, really like the first one, and the third to last and last ones, good job

Thanks for the comments, guys. The Escort shot is my favourite as well, and the inclusion of the bush was unintentional, but it turned out nicely and I tried to include it in other shots but failed.

Today I went to a drift event at Raleigh Raceway, which is a kart track (which I've driven hire karts on a number of times), but is sometimes used for drifting. The spot I was spectating from wasn't exactly the greatest spot for photos though due to the wire safety fence getting in the way.

Nice! 👍 Favourites would have to be the second shot 4th to last and second to last. Even though you weren't at a perfect spot you still give good shots. And even if in the second to last shots a pole gets in the way 👍

Wow, really nice!! My favourites are the 5th and 6th shots. You should try some close(er) up photos, it'd look great.

After months of waiting, the WRC finally arrived in Coffs Harbour. This is the biggest motorsports event I've ever been to and I just had to get a whole heap of photos, and that I did. I was fairly pleased with a lot of these photos. However, disaster struck when the SD card cried no more and decided to corrupt all of my files on me 🤬. Thankfully I could recover every single one of the photos.

I hope you all enjoy viewing these photos as much as I did taking them. As usual, these photo's were taken with an Olympus SP600UZ with some light photoshop editing.

Comments and criticism are most definitely welcome. I'll upload more pictures from the speedway soon (including some of the racing).​

Some more pictures from the local Hillclimb (these are from two different race meetings, it didn't just suddenly become sunny for the last few shots ):
