Impact


I love the angle of the picture taken and how the picture is focused on the driver who looks very focused. honestly it is a great picture and the people in the background look like they are having blast but also scared for when they start the race (xD I would do the same). I feel that you captured both side/ perspectives of the event, the driver and the on lookers e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=" (Big Grin)"/>. only thing I would suggest is your stamp/ logo be a different color (or a white box) so I could read it a little easier. (hard for me because the color of the tree). keep up the great work and have a wonderful day! hope I could help.

Nice collection of classic racers.  I built the Hawaiian Funny Car kit as a kid decades ago.  And I recall that Hot Wheels produced a drag racing set that featured the Mongoose VS Snake rivalry.  I think it's cool you were able meet many of those drag racing greats.

Nothing like mind-shattering noise combined with a smell that’ll make the top of your skull tingle! Nitro cacklefest! Awesome shot!

I have some goggles that look a lot like that, just with some blue or grey (I forgot which, I'm not lookign at them) fabric at the base, and a brown strap

old soviet cold war goggles, a bit tight but quite comfortable

Yes, you are a collector of protective devices If I remember correctly.

How did you come to be a gas mask collector?

i'm gonna say it was a mixture of stumbling across some photographs of chernobyl, and the doctor who episode "The Empty Child"

I'VE GOT TO SHOUT MY APPRECIATION OF THE TIGHT FOCUS!

And I appreciate the feedback.  This is the best of the fifteen shots taken from different points of view.  Details were a factor, right down to the amount of glare on the driver's goggles.

I could, in principle, write way more, but the tightness really concentrates on the man and the machine.

Why don't you write a critique?  I'd love to hear your take on this photo, especially since you seem to like it.
