Cracking set of shots there Chris, all nice and sharp.

The low angle shots work well but I'll go with the jump shot of David Mann's Impreza WRC as my favourite; I like how the road to the left of the shot shows where the car is going to land.

Were any of these taken with the 70-200?

Oh and there's me popping up again in Dalton shot!

Great stuff Pons. Some nicely exposed shots with good sharpness and colours. Like them all, the chase shot and the Celica favs.

Jim

Nice mixed set Pons, probably the best Rally set I've seen you post.

Got a lovely 16-35 here with your name on it ... if you're still interested :)


Cheers
