Good morning Hive family and all the photographers lovers around the world, what I got here for you all today are some new shots that I had taken at Del Mar Horse track, it was a long drive to get there but it was worth it and sad too. I have been absent for the last couple days and this post right here marks the end of my camera. My Canon 60D DSLR camera has now broke, I am getting an error 30, and an error 30, which is mechanical, so I know I have reached that shutter count for the life of this camera. It lasted two years of shooting with about 15 Terabytes worth of RAW files and I am sure I have shot more too. A sad day for me, no available funds to buy new and a couple months back my Canon 400mm Telephoto lens went down as well. It is what it is, they lasted pretty long for as much as I did in the last two years. I have all them terabytes of RAW files to edit, so now I can focus on that for a time being.
The sad part for me is I only got to the second race of nine in total, I wished it would've lasted for this trip but it didn't and I got what I got. I did use my phone too for the rest of the races but I am not always a big fan of those shots, I like to edit and make them pop but it is what it is, edits and phone shots will be coming. Now lets get into some of these edited shots on from my Canon 60D, remembering what it did for me and the last shooting scene for its life. The cover shot, the one above is okay but not really epic shot series. Most of what I got are not really sharp at all but its all good I had fun shooting for the last time with my Canon 60D. This was the winner of the second race, now in the next shot below is the first race and just thought this angle was cool, again not sharp but fun. On my tablet these look great but on my PC they they look really amateur, haha.
I changed my mind on the cover shot, took it off and put this one up above instead, keeping it all with the same race. Sorry about that. The cover shot is the coolest one of the four shots here, not sharp but lets keep it pushing.
Here is the shot after teh cover shot, these are all in order but the cover was before this shot.
In the last shot here, I was about 70 yards and more to get all these images, camera not working right and the 300mm lens not really helping me out on the quality but you just don't get them all the time, so lets move on and just keep doing the best we can do. Regardless a fun but sad day, I will post more eventually as well as the phone shots, so stay tuned in. Thank you all for stopping by my blog and post, have a blessed one.
Anyways appreciate everyone feedback hope you have enjoyed my shots and post today' thanks for stopping by, Have a blessed one and thank you for coming in and checking out my shot's of the day. Stay tuned and enjoy my future shots in the world of photography, thru my lens.

I am not in favour of animal entertainment. But I have to admit that these races are very eye-catching.
