So, I took a trip to see the USGP Formula 1 race this weekend. I brought along my D200 and a 70-200mm VR lens and here are a few quick shots I’ve pulled out of the 600+ images I shot over the weekend.
I didn’t spend much time at all on selecting or processing these, just cropped some down and tried to get one of each driver. Maybe someday I’ll work on color adjustment and all that stuff, but it’s way over my head right now.
Hamilton taking a victory lap after qualifying P1.
Kimi
Webber
Barrichello
Trulli
Massa
Sato
Barichello
Fisichella
Speed
Liuzzi
Coulthard
Kovalainen

Schumacher
Sutil in the Spyker. Very possibly my favorite livery out there, it’s a great looking car in person.
Davidson
Button. One of my favorite images of the weekend.
Hamilton and Alonso battling for 1st off of the start

Yeah, that lens is very nice…they are pricey too!
Oh yeah, uber super-duper full size can be found in the full gallery. Feel free to do more or less anything non-commercial with them.

That’s Rosburgs Williams on fire, asshat.
Nice pics
god bless america indeed Brent! looks like you’re putting that d200 to good use (and finally realized how to hold it straight)
Yeah, I only had to rotate a few! Hahahaha
This one wasn’t too straight, but it was also a stalker cam :snky: shot. Ended up pretty good for shooting from the hip ;).
