Last night I had the opportunity to take my partner, Lori, and my daughter, Mikah, to the Perth Motorplex for the rescheduled Silver Cup and Demo Derby meeting, initially set to be run on Easter Sunday, the meeting was rescheduled after heavy rains prevented any chance of running the event on the original date.
While I was there to watch and enjoy the racing, I couldn't resist the temptation to throw some long glass and a converter on the 1D-X, bump the ISO way way up and see what I could do, so here are a few of those photos.

2016 Good Friday Burnouts
I'm sorting through the photos from the 2016 Good Friday Burnout King at Perth Motorplex this week, so here are a few teaser shots. This years event was an opportunity for entrants to secure invites to both the Red Centre Nats and the Masters at Summernats, which tempted several east coast cars to come and play.

Nostalgia Drags by GoPro
While trying to avoid the inevitable early season burnout that comes with a new season of drag racing at the Perth Motoplex, I decided to shoot the recent Nostalgia Drags (the day after the drag racing season opener) almost entirely by GoPro. This was also a good chance to test out the hardware and see if it could be incorporated into my regular gear.
All shots in this blog were taken with a GoPro Hero3 Black and processed in Lightroom before uploading.
