    Default Swamp Buggy Racing

    I believe that Naples, Florida, is the only place in the world you can see swamp buggy races. It's a big deal in Naples, with their own venue, lots of entries, and big purses. The layout is poor for photography, with the bright sun overhead and behind the buggies as they come up the final straightaway. This image was processed with HDR, for lots of drama, using five exposures obtained from a single image. Any C & C would be welcome!

    Hi Mike..had to comment! I love the image! Lots of impact and it's great how the light plays against the water.
    Well done overall!

    I wondered how you did this when I first opened the image - HDR really took this to a whole other level! What fun!!!

    Superb shot. great treatment. I like the "calm before the storm" water in the FG a lot. And nice to get such a clean look at the driver...without any splash water there. Awesome.
