Excellent stuff Glenn! I like the balance of #3 and the humour in #7. All are very sharp and the framing is spot from where I sit. I also spent ages looking through your amazing gallerys on your web site. Judging from the quality of your images and the gear you have I would guess you are a pro photographer, would this be correct?

Glenn, Steve will be interested in any Danny Ladderman shots.

The Global Lights are a strange bunch and number 5's wife has been sponsoring him all year.

We had a strange day at Croft with fields shrinking lap by lap. Saloons started with 9 and finished with 4. At least the Croft weather was reasonable and it looks like Brands was OK too.

Hi Ken. I'll drop Steve an email after todays session. It's a strange event... if the BRSCC hadn't fallen out with MSV you'd swear it was a BRSCC Winter Series meeting... :lol:

Yeah, weather was good at Brands although the light fades very quickly this time of year - must be even worse for you "up north".

Man, those are great shots, Glenn. Wow, the detail inside the helmet, the colors and the clarity are outstanding.

Hi Glenn,

Grest set of shots. I particularly like #3. It has a nice symmetry about it, is taken from a nice low down position (you can see underneath the lead car) and has that all important clean background. It tells the story of the chrge up Hailwood Hill towards Druids well.

Cheers,

Simon.

lol @ Dave... lawnmower racing? :p ;)

AzzA, was nice meeting you too. Always good to put a face to a name! I'm uploading some shots to my web site now. Wasn't really in a post processing mood so it's all "straight out of the camera stuff". I'll post some on here later :)

Yet another cracking selection, although Dave's lawnmower really does it for me :lol:


"Sponsored by the wife"....how many photographers would want to be in that position ? ;)

hahaha I wish!

seriously thought about it but was talked out of it by being plyed with alcohol by the Mrs last night. resultant session was falling out af bed at 9am and attacking the lawn.

PS that's a library pic :) from earlier in the decade.

Very nice shots Glenn. I'm regretting that I couldn't free up enough time to make it there myself now!! I like the pack shots approaching druids in No. 3 and the group making their way through Surtees (No. 5) as well. I'm going to have to try through the fence down there at some point.

Thanks for sharing,
Steve
