One of the purpose I went to Sepang Super GT Race is to practice my panning skill to take picture of moving object which is the GT cars. In order to take a photo where people can feel the car inside the picture is moving, you need use panning skill where you will need to set your camera to lower shutter speed and turn your body by following the car as it moves to take a very nice panning shot. Why must turn your body? When you put to lower shutter speed, the car in the picture will be blurred as the car is moving in fast speed. In order to take the car is very sharp but the background and the tyre remain blur, you need to turn your body while making sure the camera stay in focus on the car when taking the shot. Below are some of the panning shots I took during the event.

Japan Super GT: Race Queens Part 1

Japan Super GT International Series was held in Sepang International Circuit last month. It was the only GT race outside of Japan which you won’t get to see it unless you are in Japan or Malaysia. I got myself a Main Grandstand ticket plus Pit Walkabout ticket which enable me to walk into pit lane and take pictures. During the Pit Walkabout sessions, we get the chance to take the pictures of Japanese race queens which come all the way from Japan. Here is the first part of the race queens pictures. More will come soon plus pictures of GT cars will come soon as well.
