2018 Summernats 31

Over the weekend I was sent out to photograph Summernats 31. Always great fun being at this event, photographing all the excitement of people and their cars. Here are a few of my fav images.

11 Days - Hockey ACT Season

11 Days to go!

Over the last few years I have taken many images in many conditions. Rain, Hail, Shine, Hot, Cold you name it I have done it........ Well not hurricane or fire. But having been in these crazy conditions the players have to be playing in it, and in this image shows the dedication of a coach who stands on the side line and takes the harsh conditions with their players.

Love this shot find image here: http://www.keegancarrollphotography.com/2-8-anu-nc-st-pats-tvhc/anu-150802kc011

1 Day Till KCP will be attending Summernats 30

1 Day till Summernats 30

1 day to go! Tomorrow is the day, 365 days in a year and tomorrow Is when I'm there. 

Image 10 - Well this is my favourite image of all time. Why? Well this image not only has many memories for me but to me it's very technically perfect. Everything from the car, the drivers celebration, to the crowd. When I clicked my shutter I knew I had an amazing shot. This was also the 1 year I attended this event alone, it wasn't the last but I was riding solo.

Well this is the last image in the 10 image count. NOW! Stay tuned for the images from Summernats 30!!!

2 Days till Summernats 30

2 days to go! Well two days for me. Summernats has already started but the best days are when the weekend kicks in. It's almost here the party has almost begun! This brings up image 9 in KCP's 10 image special in the lead up to the big Summernats 30. 

Image 9 is one of my favourite of the 18 years I have attended Summernats car festival. 18 years??? Yes 18 but your 28?? Yep been attending this festival since I was in year 5. Long time! Seen it all and photographed it all. Had many great memories. I hope this year is when I take my best images. Why this image is one of my favourites well. When I started photography I learnt this technique "panning" simple technique but when done right you get this image. 

Stay tuned still many more days of fantastic images to come!!!

3 days Till Summernats 30

3 Days till Summernats 30

3 days to go! What's that smell?? I think it's rubber & car fumes!!! That means Summernats is close! That must mean it's the 8th image in KCP's 10 image special in the lead up to the big Summernats 30. 

Image 8 features the same car that was in image 3. Why have two images of the same car? Well this image shows why. It's always exciting photographing "fear" and this is why! FIRE!!!

4 Days Till Summernats 30

4 Days till Summernats 30

4 days to go! The excitement is building! I can hear the engines rumbling. Well we continue our count to Saturdays Summernats 30 bringing up image 7 in KCP's 10 image special in the lead up to the big Summernats 30. 

Image 7 its very close to image 5 but on this image the driver needs no help with his street burnout and has a few more spectators cheering him on. With the license plate "come on" and the trusty go pro on the pole he obviously knows what he is doing.

Stay tuned still many more days of fantastic images to come!!!
