Nice shots!In previous years they had the Nostalgia Class that had a couple of Allisons , this year they didn't. All they had was Hydros and Offshore. Kinda disapointing but, a fun shoot non the less.

Based on Lighting & Angle, the First 3 are from Rooster Tail Turn/ Turn 4, which means the OP was shooting from shore. Either the OP received a Media Cred from H1, or they most likely shot from Roostertails. The 4th shot could be from anywhere, but it looks like the Peters & May Hydro is returning to the pits.

Great shots! Did you take those from shore or a boat?Shots were taken from shore. Had a Photo Credential and all day was split between 3 places. On a man lift above (behind) the main grandstand, standing in the pits (behind the boats ,water's edge) and top of the VIP tower (directly behind the pits). The favored spot (next to Roostertails) wasn't avail. untill Sunday. All these were taken Saturday.

Actually Roostertails was closed for the day (sat) for a wedding and I believe the last pic,he's commin of of turn 3 . (bit of a crop)
