Brands Hatch - 16th August - We even saw somw sunshine!

[Joffan]

Finally I wasn't taking photos in a big grey box all day as the sun came out for at least some of the day at Brands Hatch on Saturday.

Enough of the waffle. Photos ahoy.

1. Jedi's pushing on

7. And here his someone bending his Beetle. Probably caused by the engine being in the wrong place. Or his steering breaking. Actually it was his steering

Sorry it turned into a thread on why I dislike Porsches. But I enjoyed my day other than their very dull 2 hours of racing.

Cheers all! Comments always welcome. Played with the dpi for the forum to try and make them look nicer. We'll see whether it worked...

Edit - If Jamie H wouldn't mind correcting my spelling in the thread title... ta!

Good stuff Jon. Just posted some of mine up from the Saturday. You were there Sunday too weren't you? Hope it was good. For once the weather was perfect for me, not raining and not roasting hot, just nice :) Anyway #2 I like, slightly different angle to me, nice to see :)

I think #3 has suffered from the "Shutter Priority mode, lets underxpose on a white car syndrone" lol - a tad dark on my old screen. Like the close up Jedi shot, for some reason I don't venture to the inside of Druids so much anymore, maybe I should.

cheers

Yeah was there on the Sunday Az. Was a lot better day than the Saturday all things considered. Was feeling a lot brighter aswell!

And you might be right about the white Porsche. Bloody thing. Looked ok on my laptop but depends on how angled the screen is!

Thanks! Yes, these were all taken with the 100-400 and my 30D.
