The color in the first is GREAT! It pops off the screen. I really like the second, very cool! Somehow I think the third one was your favorite:thumb

HI there Jeffro,

The third one is A favourite, so far the second is at the top of the list. I took 6000 images in four days during the event and am still weeding out the oof shots.

The third one is me, got one of the local pro's walking by to take it for me :D

I am hoping I got more like the first one, I agree with colour (pitty it isn't one of the Red Bullets).

Great colour mate :thumb It looks a mongrel place to photograph from.

Thanks Gus, yes it would have to one of the most difficult circuits to get a good vantage point (unless you have the privalige to wear the orange vest). every point had the concrete barrier and high wire fence, combined with the bright sun shine was hard to get the fence to dissappear.

Was a good learning exercise though, I will know what to do next time.

LOL Tassie...I can see that you try to look after yourself :rofl And those lookers on your arms ain't in bad shape either :thumb I am amazed that you were looking in the direction of the camera :lol

Love the cars. As mentioned, they pop and those flames sure don't hurt the viewability either :clap

Hi Rahmonster,

Thanks for the comment, there was a huge amount of action just a pity it was never where i was standing :D oh well next time.

I would love to be going to the F1 but alas I will have to pass on it this year.
