POTW - w/e 19.8.18

[KateW]

A good range of subjects and treatments this week, and yet again, I've gone for a subject that doesn't usually appeal to me at all. I'm not in the least bit interested in any form of competitive sport, but this image really stands out for me. The Cisco Kid, by John2, has been caught at exactly the right moment, with a fantastic motion blur, but the car and its driver pin sharp. I hate to think where you must have been standing to get this front-on view!

Well done John - a very professional image.

Agreed, also from one who is not into motorsports, but this is brilliant.

Congrats from me also John.

Thanks all and Kate in particular.  I am not into motor sport as such except in as much as it provides an opportunity to use a camera.  Taken on a bend with a 70-300 mm zoom.  The BG blur was to hide a load of clutter.

His name has been changed to Johntwo due to an issue on the site but when Phil linked his old posts it appears the  original name is now shown as “guest .”  ..... don’t ask
