SuperSpa 2026, Spa Francorchamps

My pictures from Super Spa 2026. I have been focussing on panning shots, taking small steps but getting there. All pictures taken with Nikon Z50II with Tamron 50-400mm lens. Brought the shuttertime for some of the pics down to 1/50. Pretty happy with the results. If you have any feedback, feel free to let me know!

Second time trying motorsport photography

This is my second time photographing motorsport, and my first time with a more serious camera. My biggest issues right now seem to be consistency with panning and focus, especially because on my camera's 2-inch screen, everything seems clear... It doesn't help that my camera's autofocus isn't great either. I've also struggled a bit with framing, it's been really tricky to get the car into a certain part of the picture. I'm thinking this has to do with panning. Any advice would be appreciated. These pictures are from Petit Le Mans.

Edit: This is was my first time: https://www.reddit.com/r/Motorsportphotography/comments/1o53f6o/first_time_photographing_motorsport_any_advice/

MotoGP Japan Friday :)

Just edited some of my photos from MotoGP Free Practice yesterday, and I’m honestly really proud of how they turned out.
This was only my second time shooting with my Sigma 150-600mm, and shooting bikes at this speed is still a huge challenge for me. There were definitely plenty of misses, but I’m really happy with some of the shots I managed to get.
I’m also really proud of how much I’ve improved over the past year. Looking back at my first motorsport photos compared to these, the difference is honestly kind of crazy. I still have a lot to learn, but it’s really rewarding to see the progress.
Shot on a Canon EOS 700D + Sigma 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports.
