[chngpe01]

This was the outing organised by Friday13 on 24 May 06 (refer to this thread http://forums.clubsnap.org/showthread.php?t=194717 ). Had a good day and enjoy shooting these speed demon.


Here's some of my shots:

Mr Friday13 or the "White Plo"


His teammate, Mohd, a veteran and very experienced racer. Never let his age fool you (above 50 man)

I must say that I take my helmet of the photography skills of PE! You are good Bro! I loved your pics! Learnt a very expensive skill from you too absolutely FOC! Thanks!

thanks for sharing man... nice bikes =)

technically, they're well executed, especially nice job with the bikes comin out of the corner... but i feel the composition of the panning is a bit repetitive from the position U were shooting from...

just a nitpick & personal preference, the colors look too clean slightly higher contrast would inject these pics with a little more attitude like the riders have.

Looks like Mohd was the only 'most-photogenic' rider pushin it that day.... U can see him leaning into the curve more than the others... wonder if there's more shots.

Thanks for tips, appreciate it.

Yes it is rather repetitive as I did not move much and it was a short shoot, ok I am just plain lazy to move

This was my first time to Pasir Gudang and shooting bike, it was a good experience. Though the experience of going there wasn't good, got a ticket from the JB police for speeding on a congested road. At first I was told my speed was 96kph then it was changed to 85kph etc ( I am sure I was doing 60-70), the other vehicle in the convey directly in front of me was not stopped. sighz, maybe the Forester I was driving made it a target. Next time I will drive my van.

Anyway thanks again for the input and overly flattering remarks from the usual gang.

I have done some editing based on Rev input and hope it is better.

Hi PE,
Nice shots. Must have been a sizzling hot day.

Physical - Graffiti,
normal cars are allowed in PG but you may need a helmet. Need to check with the track if the track is booked for private use. If not, there is timing for cars and bike to run separately for safety reasons.
