Couple from this year.

And to cap off the year, the Watkins Glen Vintage Grand Prix.

2nd major event of the year, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. I had been planning this since Ford announced their factory Ford GTLM program and this was the 4th and final year.

Since i am done with the torture that was license operator initial training at work, i have finally been able to go wonder out to some races this year. 1st event, 2019 Super Sebring. The WEC came over for a 1000 mile race on Friday afternoon the day before the traditional 12 Hours of Sebring...

For the past three years i have been ordering custom calendars through Nations Photo Lab as Christmas presents for friends and family. They are very nice, but not very customizable. I'm looking for something in the 8x11 to 11x14 range that will allow me to label the pictures. In my case i...

Lexar 2933x XQD Memory Cards Now 50% Off | Nikon Rumors Just ordered 3 64 Gb and a card reader. Not a bad deal.

I'm looking at ways to subsidize my gear lust and travel habits. There are plenty of opportunities at swap meets and various shows for physical sales, so that isn't an issue. I'm not sure where to go with a website with built in sales capability. Squarespace, Zenfolio, and Smugmug are the...

One of my friends sent this my way. Gotta love the muppets.

Nikon reveals the D500 DSLR with 'smart connectivity' Nikon Rumors had a more complete posting but i can't find it. Looks like D800ish body, for 2K plus the performance, I want one.

I'm looking at picking up an Airport Security V2.0 to use as my primary air travel bag. A quick search here didn't really turn up much info. The reviews online tend to be from wedding and portrait photographers. I'm looking at lugging around a 200-400 and a 70-200 with one body, and two...

I picked up one of these used on Adorama a few weeks back. Primary uses for me, airshows, racing, the odd animal i stumble across in my travels and whatever random uses I can find a use for this beast. And that is the main point, this thing is a beast. It is easily twice as long as the...

Got tired of wating for the Sigma 120-300 to be in stock somewhere reputable for more than 5 minutes. Stumbled onto this at Adorama on their used section. This thing is nearly mint!

I've been slowly working through these and decided it's time to post up a few of my favorites so far. All handheld with my D7100 + 70-200 and some with the TC-14EIII

By far my favorite from the about 20 images from Sebring I have edited so far.

Where they pass is where they wreck. Road courses are a little different but a little research will net you those two or three turns that get the most passing and risk taking. Even if the car is on the other side of the track, you can still get something from it.

I'm pulling together a few pictures from Sebring that I want to get printed. I've seen mentioned around the web that you should bump up exposure by about a 1/4 stop in Lightroom, to make up for the back lighting a computer screen has. Is there any truth to that or is the image above ready to...

Just exported a few images from my last outing to help tweak my dad's tail a bit in revenge for his gloating when he was at the 24 Hours of Daytona. I had some pictures sitting on my desktop from my first outing to Summit Point last year. Comparing them side to side, at least to me, pretty...

My first real vacation in years and it was at HSR's year end meet at Daytona. They had a night race on Friday night, and it RAINED! Overall I took about 2600 pictures. FOr the three days I was all over the place and you can get pretty close to the track in most places. More will...

In little over a month I'll be headed out on vacation finally! I'm planning on renting either a 300 2.8 or the sigma 120-300 s. My current bag is a lowepro flipside 300. It can handle my 70-200, two extra lenses and the other odds and ends I need for a weekend out and about. Since I will be...

This November I will be headed to Daytona International Speedway for the end of year HSR vintage race. Some of the distances can be very very long. I was looking at renting this lens to use on my D5200, and I am also considering getting a teleconverter for my 70-200 as a different option. Has...
