Photographing Ter-Tech’s BMW drift car at night while it was drifting the track was one of the most difficult shoots I’ve done yet. When the car is still it’s easy to get a good quality image. But as soon as it on the track, with low light, I had to shoot at 6400ISO with a 200mm f/2.8 lens. I only use 6400ISO for playing around. This was the first time I was forced to use it for an entire shoot. A few of the images were usable but they still required a lot of post processing.
