~ The Hills are Alive, to the Sound of ... Engines ~
A wonderful day at the Australian Hillclimb Championships at Mt. Cotton ... Ok, so it's a boy thing. It's amazing how far a Media Pass and a decent business card will get you !

The plans of Mice and Men ...
Although the original concept for this photo-blog may have changed somewhat due to Life, Love etc (ad nauseum), I WILL chip away at this thing (where possible) until I have completed the countdown from 365. Who knows, I may have a sudden rush of available time (cough) or overwhelming inspiration and still complete the project within the 12 months, although the realist in me says "you're dreamin' mate" ... Whatever, However and Whenever, fruition SHALL be reached (and I have it on good advice that Fruition is a rather nice place, particularly in Spring) :o)

Snuck in eh Andy ! Good one.You could try a couple of shots literally from ground level. You need to spread eagle on the deck with the lens on the edge of the seal. If you use your zoom lens you should avoid having to get real close. The lower angle raises the vehicle substantially and ( I think ) gives it more impact. Worth trying.
A few more comments... go for a high shutter speed which will probably mean a fairly wide aperture, but that helps, as you'll then be able to blur the background out to a mass of unfocused colours, putting more emphasis onto the subject. If you're up off the deck, like sitting, you could pan with the subject to create the feeling of speed. Using the Motordrive facility really helps... then select the best frames.
