Automobiles From the Top-End, Laundry and speed

[Brownie]

Something a little different from the norm. I went down to the top end for the first time this season. Been wanting to go, but it's a long walk there and back, and if I drive down I lose my parking spot. One of the other guys had a side by side, so he drove me down and we shot from opposite sides of the track. I might get an electric scooter or something next year.

Couple of my favorite night shots from the event. Still getting used to Darktable's Profiled NR, not sure it's as good as Affinity's yet. Affinity's is definitely easier to use, but it's sure a lot faster processing in one program instead of two. I'll mess with it a lot more before I decide. Rokinon 135/1.8

Superb action shots. Love the panned shots especially.

Need to try panning shots including the chute, would be different.

Great captures, I can smell the rubber burning!

Good set Tim, the daytime stuff looks like a challenge

This may help, sorry no scratch-n-sniff!

Cool stuff. I can smell this image, maybe a folding electric bike to get up and down could help

I found a sit down electric scooter with basket that’ll carry 50 lbs. 20mph and up to 16 miles, with 14” tires, should be plenty. It folds a bit so I can toss it in the back of my truck. Not going to get it until next season, this one is almost over and evidently the batteries only have a 6 month warranty. Sounds like a spring purchase.
