Every Sunday at about 9:30am there is a group of Radio Control boaters that meet at the lake on College Blvd in Niceville near NWF State College. This morning I joined them around 10am and took these photos all at ISO 200 and 570mm lens (all out on my Canon SX20 superzoom lens). Upper left is action coming toward me (1/400 & F6.3). Upper right is action going away (1/200 & F5.7). Lower left is panning rapidly to get sharp image (1/1000 & F 6.3). Lower right is panning rapidly to blur background to show motion (1/160 & F8). All boats were travelling at about 50 mph so I had a blast trying to capture these images. This was some fast action! The boats are about 4 feet long and they have a full size fishing boat to go retrieve the RC boats should their engines stop. They place buoys out in the lake and race around them. This was fun!
Dale, these are just awesome. I have not been able to get any good pictures for the class this week yet.
