This 360vr image is the view from inside a Motorground Ginetta G50 GTR racing car, photographed at Silverstone on Monday 19th September 2011.
This image was a bit frustrating to shoot as I had a couple problems while doing it. It takes long enough to set the camera up being a small space to photograph. Chose my spot, set it all up and started shooting. I bracketed the image as I usually do inside cars, 9 images to cover a high dynamic range of light plus x3 of each of these for focus stacking. Started shooting, got nearly all the way around and it suddenly dawned on me that I was shooting at 400iso.... I could have probably got away with this, but decided to start over. Back at 100iso the longest exposure was 30sec so the process of shooting took even longer than before. Got to the 4th or 5th click on the rotator and some kind person opened up the garage door flooding the car with light. This messed everything up so had to start yet again. At this point the mechanics started working on the car, putting fuel in and wheels on etc... So I was a little under pressure to get it finished, fortunately the mechanics where nice about it and gave me the time required to finish shooting it. After a good hour photographing it I'd finished, but without a good idea if the image would come out ok or not. Lucky for me it was fine, none of the rushing around or movement of the car effected the image.
Below are a few of the still shots I took at Silverstone of the Ginetta.....
