I love muscle cars. This is a gorgeous Shelby Cobra GT500KR. Zoom, zoom, baby ! ! !
The fast attack section of my army as it stands, the Triarch Praetiorians are actually elites but as they are jump infantry it seems fitting to parade them next to Canoptek Wraiths
So far both the scarabs and the wraiths have attracted a lot of attention and serious firepower in battle, foes are scared of these chaps.
17th January 2020., Gulf of Oman
While cruising on Royal Caribbean ship " Jewel of the Seas " in the Gulf of Oman towrds Muscat, Oman a number of these " Go fast " boats approached the cruise ship and started speeding around in a circle. The ships klaxon sounded, I assume as a warning to the boats. The boats stayed alongside for about 10 minutes then sped away.
Of note is the fact that most of the guys on these boats had their faces covered by wearing balaclava masks
I also wonder, but have an idea as to what the "bales" in each boat are
I was out in the backyard when I saw something moving quickly among the bee balm. At first I thought it was a hummingbird until I got closer and discovered it was a Hummingbird Moth. It was very sunny out with little cover so I apologize for the brightness. Enjoy your Sunday.
Overall winner of 2012 Petit LeMans Rebellion Racing Lola B12/60 Toyota makes quick work of the IMSA Performance Matmut Porsche 911 GT3 RSR in the "stadium" section of Road Atlanta. Great place for crowd to watch the race and we amateur photogs to get up close, unobstructed view points.
Tom's tip: For the folks that want to try panning...you regulars at this know the drill and probably have even better technique. Anyway, manual exposure of area of shot...dark versus light colored cars and headlights will effect shutter priority settings. Observed that faster overtaking cars if on tail of lead car at turn to left would pass about this location. My target point. Focus track and begin panning with slower car and when faster car enters frame...trip shutter... follow trough like your best baseball swing. Repeat until happy! I use shutter speeds from 1/125 to 1/180 to keep those wheels spinning, with sharp detail on car, in this case the blue Porsche as the black #12 was faster than my pan rate and a beautiful background blur for that "speedy" look. Try speeds down towards 1/45 or slower for some interesting results. I'm open to discussion and improved techniques!
Very fast food at that. Sebastien Bourdais in a hurry during the weekend's first Champ Car qualifying session, in which he set the pace - just for a change...
Actually, the big news on the day was that Bourdais had finally made it into F1, with the confirmation that he's to debut on the Grand Prix grid in 2008 with Toro Rosso. It's well beyond time but it's nice he does get his shot in the big league...
2007
I used to be obsessed with these slow shutter shots, not so much anymore. But I put one up anyway :)
I went to bed at nearly midnight last night and then jerked awake when I realized I had nothing really leftover to take for lunch.
I got up and boiled up some pasta, threw a jar of spaghetti sauce at it, a packet of veggie burger crumbles, and some broccoli bits. Nuked some water in the microwave and brewed some Celestial Seasonings tangerine zinger for Julia. Threw it all in the fridge and then went to bed. Then this morning I got a basic tomato/lettuce salad together and then Julia got the last of the baby tomato.
