Was at Brands on Sunday for the opening car event. Quality weather, was actually bordering on being hot!!! Was nice to get back out there. No real changes to the circuit apart from a tree chopped out on exit of Paddock and some hefty pruning to the trees inside Druids. Was good to get back out there, only downside being the poor grid during the "MSVR Sports Racing"... mmm.

Right, here's a few compressed "forum friendly sized" photos for comment... all shot with a 40D and 100-400 or 24-105:

#1 Panny pan exiting Paddock Hill Bend (bit different for me)...

I like that different angle in #6, not one you see to often, I wish there was an angle like that at my local track.

Azza,

You have some really nice work here - what a great way to start the season. For anyone that hasn't done so yet, Azza's website is also well worth a look. This shot in particular:-

is fantastic (yes it is another wonderful shot of that Capri, but the composition, light and DoF is as good as it gets IMHO).

Simon.

PS never seen a Citroen BX racing in the UK either - my dad used to have one of those LOL!

cheers boys.

Thanks Simon. nice of you to comment on one I didn't post here. Yeh the lighting was really spot for a bout 20 mins at the end of the day, particularly at this time of year. The Capri was very tidy as well which helps :) Ha yeh the Citty made me chuckle when I saw it roll out the pits :)
