Only if it's very very windy, then it's pretty much essential for slower panning. Otherwise everything is handheld, got a pretty strong right arm these days from holding my 80-200 for 7 or 8 hours a weekend :)
Nikon D50 and Nikon 80-200 2.8.
Was a bit concerned about how picky they might be as it was an unsharpened A4 print from a 6mp camera, looked fine though.
:) Bought the magazine as usual in Tesco this evening, had a bit of a shock when I got home and flicked through, first competition I've entered this year and I got a runners up spot.
The shot below got me through to Stage 2 of Photographer of the Year 2008 in the Category of 'Movement' and...
I think he might work at Castle Combe or seems to be involved with them somehow, the other half sees him all the time and we both spotted him in Tesco Trowbridge a few weeks back.
Awesome pics, see what a telephoto lens can do for you! Second pic is the winner imo, excellent. I had no idea you could get pictures that good at Silverstone actually, always been put off going but you've shown me the way. Think I might do the Britcar 24hr this year.
Was it really busy? Was...
It looks really quiet from these pics and a bit bland (not the photography) behind the stand, just like a massive car park. Is it as good as the last place I forget the name of?

I will get something in on Saturday night, off to watch British F3/GT at the weekend.
Thought I would revisit this one as we headed in the other direction this evening, probably only about 1/4 mile this time, towards the fields instead of the rest of the estate.
Anyhooow, pretty awesome evening. Gutted I only took my 50mm with me though, walking down the path and...
Put a little more thought into this one, put the side-badges back on, extended the panel lines onto the arches and generally tried to make it a bit tidier. Wheels aren't quite the same size though.
Friday is awesome imo, especially if you aren't fussed about seeing the famous drivers but still want to see 95% of the cars. Still busy but much much quieter than Saturday or Sunday. I'm going on Friday again this year.
In an ideal world I would wander the massive static displays on the...
Was really struggling with this, tried loads of photos before I found a couple where it worked. Then I come on here and realise that people are happily cutting door frames off and stuff, which I was desperately trying not to do!
Here are a couple anyway, loads of room for improvement but it's...
