Yet another FIA GT thread!

Oh well... I suppose I'd better give you my take on the day.

#1 A dull and soggy start with the Maseratis. It's a bit of a cheek posting them in here since it wasn't much of a race.

is number 6 coming into abbey early on in the race?

That'd be about right, yes.

Just look at the lovely tin you had to photograph while I struggled to get decent angles at Donington. The third shot is a nice mag shot to go with a write up.

By the way Glenn, Donington now has a very pretty pit lane and garages and ..... errr.... well, that's it really.

i wasnt too far from you then. i saw the start from a muddy bunker on the exit of abbey

Cheers Ken! The tin might be nice but the angles at Silverstone aren't much better than Donington, particularly from the wrong side of the fences! At least using the GP circuit gave me a chance to shoot something other than Luffield, Luffield and a few extra shots at Luffield. If I get a minute I'll sort out some shots from Brands on Saturday - that really was lovely tin.

I'm almost certain I'll end up at Donington at some point this year. If not before then the "See Red" meeting is on my calendar. I've always regarded it as the 2nd worst motorsport venue in the country (from a photographers point of view).

Like #6 a lot Glenn - the 'starbursts' off the headlamps are very effective. Good colours in the first 3 shots given the conditions. Prefer some of the other Maserati shots on your website though to the ones posted here. Certainly not saying these are no good, just prefer some of the other ones.

Cheers,

Simon.

lovely shots Glenn, the pan works well for me great colours in all of them despite the grim weather conditions

the Red Bull DBR9 is tip top

wish mine looked as good oh well

Nice shots as usual.Glenn, You have the same gear as me but it appears i've a lot to learn yet.
'Something to aspire to'

Is it me or is there something a bit wrong about having the word "Modena" on the side of an Aston?

A real triumph over the conditions there Glenn particularly #3 but i'll break ranks and pick the last shot of the MC12 as my favourite

get a ferrari and put 'newport pagnell' on the side to balance out the karma

That 500mm of yours works well at Stowe and Club, I especially like #9.
Andy

Love the 3rd one! I hope it was on line & not one of those "OH SH*T" moments?

Like the Aston front on shot the best and some pretty good shots in your gallery of the Aston also.

Cheers
Ian

He's turning in just nicely for the left hander, everything under control!

I think that's my favourite shot of this bunch too, Ian. Thanks for the comment.
