Judging by the number of togs present there will be a load of threads like this one. Met a nice guy called Peter at the back of the grid (another forum member) while we where both talking the same grid lady. He asked if I was Kenny G, on account of my hat - fame at last.

1. Before the panel bashing started I thought I get all artisitc

Hiya Dan - No I missed it. I am a 100% certified poo deflector. If it is going to happen it will not happen near me. Having watched for the panel bashing at the start all day the one time I'm somewhere else it all kicks off.

When I was at the start it all happened on the other side of the circuit.

Excellent shots Dave. Really like the arty shot + the cockpit photos. The first shot though is excellent - the blue and white kerb frames the car nicely, and even compliments its colour!

Cheers,

Simon.

Good stuff Dave, I am sure that the resident 'other side of the fence' brigade will make themselves known!!

#2 is tip top

any clues as to what gear you used? some of us are highly specced Anoraks and need to know this sort of thing

Thanks Gents - The bodies are both 20D. Lens would have been either a 300/2.8 prime or the omnipresent 100-400L. Mainly set a 1/320 and ISO 100.

To build the web site images I use Picasa. Quick and simple - crop to 35mm neg size and sharpen.

To create the images for printing or to supply as image files I us Raw Shooter
