| BHPian  | The 3rd Jeep was my Hurricane, the 4th was Ravichander's Hurricane. The Petrol powered CJ3B is a powerful Jeep, and at times can do such antics that modern off road vehicles cannot think about. Thanks to the short wheelbase and power to weight ratio, combined to the handling aspects. It was good to be behind the wheel of my Hurricane came off-road after nearly 8 - 9 months (was out of the country).... Quote:

 It is a relative term Sreeraj, although I have been offroading for exactly 16 months now, most other offroaders I know have many times more experience. Therefore, relatively I am a novice or a rookie among the company I keep.Quote:
Meanwhile I have noticed one curious thing that happens to me at OTR events. I have been unable to use both photographer cap and offroader cap. My offroader cap overpowers the photographer cap. I barely think about camera settings or composition and focus more on offroading techniques. If this is not clear, let me give an example. Imagine a cricket photographer, he is supposed to shoot different cricketers in close-up action. Instead of focusing on the batsmen or bowler in action, if he start watching the ball flying to the boundary and who is fielding it and then start following the score, he will make no justice to photography. Therefore, it is ideal to have somebody at OTRs who can focus totally on photography than offroading. Then we can get some real action shots from the OTRs. | ||
