After two days of exploring Qatar away from the track, we’re leaving shortly to return to Losail for the first race of the 2011 season. One of the interesting things about the MotoGP’s only night race is the opportunity to make images you simply can’t make any other time of the year. As riders were coming and going in the pit lane, I tried some slow shutter exposures with a flash and got several images I quite like, such as this one of Marco Simoncelli heading out onto the track.
Some readers have been asking for exposure information, so I will try to return to including this as often as I have time. In this case, the exposure was 1/6th of a second, flash on Rear Shutter, 24mm, f/13, ISO 320.
