The Run by maggiemae

The Run

One good run but needs another! This time Lee, our intrepid rider made 191mph but 200 is the hope.
My camera battery that I had just replaced having been fully charged,lasted less than a minute! I also have a E62:10 error about which I know not what to do!

Three good things;
1. Extra good catering at the site.
2. Walked over 2km ( mainly in this huge hotel)
3. John being interviewed by the History Channel
You can Google that error message, a video popped up on how to fix it. Of course I have no idea if it really will work. Seems quite a few folks have had that same problem. I love this photo, it is magical.

A great feeling if speed here Maggie, you can see the heat haze & next time hopefully 200! What an experience for you all!

@happypat It is very hard to capture anything here of movement - they all go so fast. The noise is the best! He hasn't done as good in the following runs.
August 13th, 2017  
@maggiemae how long have you got to try & get the speed you want maggie?
August 13th, 2017  
Looks amazing, I wish I could hear it too!
August 13th, 2017  
@happypat He might have another try this afternoon (Sun) but it seems as if they are happy to stay till Wed having originally put down on the plan to move out on Monday so there might be another chance. The wind was wrong this morning - over 10mph!

@inthecloud5 Some of the bigger cars are attempting 400mph, Christine and their noises are like a low flying 747!

Fabulous shot, I love the heat haze. Hope you can fix your camera.
August 13th, 2017  
@onewing It is hot - 35deg -Babs - the heat haze produces mirages!
August 14th, 2017  
Great shot of that high speed object. Hope you resolve the problems with your camera.

Magnificent minimalist photo!

Sorry about the battery and all the walking. When is John's interview going to be shown on the history channel?!
August 14th, 2017  
@grammyn We don't know, Katy - sometimes history channel shows on USA but not on NZ. We may be told!
August 14th, 2017  
Wow! What an adventure. Love how you got the atmosphere and processed beautifully for a nice surrealistic feel. Any luck on finding out about that error? Sprinkling pixie dust for you. Love this shot. I know it had to be difficult to catch someone at those speeds.
August 14th, 2017  
@elatedpixie Haven't had the time to investigate the problem, Phylm! Hope I can eventually - not home for another 2 weeks!
August 14th, 2017  
@maggiemae Hopefully you have a back-up and am hoping it turns out to be nothing serious - It may just be a bad battery - fingers crossed.
August 14th, 2017  
good capture
August 15th, 2017  
Just love the colours and layers here.

I can't wrap my head around 191 mph! I have no idea what's wrong with your camera- but maybe type the question in on youtube as well. There's lots of camera people there- or even here as a discussion question. There are so many knowledgeable people on 365! I hope you find out when John will be aired on the History Channel- it is one of Jeff's go to channels and how fun would that be to see him there!

Lee
I really like this one.
August 17th, 2017  
@gamelee Thanks Lee - really appreciate this from you!
August 17th, 2017  
@olivetreeann I have asked and the general answer is that you have to take in to a shop for repair and it costs, Ann. Might look for another camera.
August 17th, 2017  
Oooh !!! I see this was a great day for your family!!!!! Congrats to his interview !!!
