A new Photographic Competition has just been announced for your best British Touring Car Championship picture from 2014. This competition has been set up in the memory of one of my colleagues that died suddenly last year. His family have put up a sizeable cash prize along with a trophy for...

Great. interesting comment.. Great images BTW! :thumbs:

So.. you shoot in RAW and save a copy in jpg? I'm not judging, I'm just trying to find out what other snappers do?

So, at the moment pretty even 50-50? Well it is 10-10 actually! Curious... From what the people that use or who haved used RAW seem to be saying (unless I have got this wrong) the adjustments made to RAW are better? Then my question is: Do you need to adjust them THAT much??

Just a quickie aimed at Motorsport snappers.. What do you shoot, RAW or JPEG ?? Also, do you save them in a different format you shoot them in? And if you can... WHY?

Quite right. Sorry to take this post slightly off track, But watch this! I love this guy. If you have seen it before.... sorry. If you haven't just replace the word 'Writer' with 'Photographer' what he says is so true.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj5IV23g-fE

So, you didn't get to tell how much it was going to cost her??? Opportunity missed I think? Who did you sell it to in the end?

What ISO did you use Paul???

After visiting Donington at the weekend. FORGET even attempting to take pictures on the inside of the circuit. Apart from a small area opposite the pits the infield was CLOSED to spectators for the BTCC meeting. :thumbsdown:

As far as bands go, they normally will tell you what 'look' they want. It will be purley personal to them. I have done a couple of local bands and both of them knew what image they wanted. It was just down to them to purvay to me what they wanted and we worked together to produce it in the...

Pit Lane!! :shrug:

Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking what work PCSO's do in the community. In that enviroment they are okay. BUT put them next to some blue tape with the words 'do not cross', and they loose the plot!

You are quite within your rights to tell this guy to Foxtrot Oscar! YOU took the image on YOUR camera. So whatever they say, legally the copyright belongs to YOU! You have just learn't the first rule of business. It doesn't matter who they are, you should always get confirmation (in...
