The island, up to this morning, has been bathed in sunshine making the early evening practices a bit harder to shoot. Very bright with patches of deep shadows which spread as the evening progresses making auto-exposure a waste of time. Going full manual was the only way to go.

First a couple from the Pre-TT Classic races at Bilown (Southern Hundred Course).

Thanks Lorac

I have been for the last 5 years (it helps that my brother lives on the island).

Been taking photos here since 2006

#3 wouldn't want to get his knee much closer to the curb.
Great shots, and for some reason I really like #7(2).

Oh man, I have always wanted to be a swinger (on a side chair) that must be one hell of a rush :D. Wish I was there great captures.

Thanks Guys.

Unfortunately no racing this weekend due to bad weather.

To make up for this here are a couple of photos from last nights practice.

#6 Cameron Donald - fastest lap ever on Thursday, out with a dislocated shoulder on Friday
