The cresting Hailwood Hill shots are with my prime (300mm f4 + 1.4TC), everything else is with my much loved 80-200.
The Surtees angle is my angle :), not sure why but I don't see too many photos taken there. I find it easy because I spend all my time at Avon Rise at Castle Combe, which is a...
Great pics, are the first ones from the Clearways hatch? Didn't get around there myself.
The Twingos were just awesome, didn't look out of place which considering the 1.2 engine is high praise indeed. The Renaultsport version could be a bit epic.
My efforts from the day here. I say day, but the shocking weather meant a 4hr drive just for me to get there, so I was absolutely shattered when I arrived, then I had another 3.5hr journey home! Not my greatest of days off, but at least I got a few photos.
So not as many pics this year (100...
That's one incredibly sharp panning shot for 1/125. What IS mode do you use? On my old Panny I had to switch it off the main mode as it tried to correct horizontal movement (obviously bad when panning) but thankfully it had a "Mode 2" which only corrected vertical movement (which was quite handy...
It's got a weird side skirt and a sunroof, I'm guessing bog standard 5 door Clio resprayed, body kitted and 172/182 engine dropped in. Seems like a lot of work, mind you!
Plenty of ideas without the need for 'gettin dirty' imo :) Also if you think outside of the box (as it were) there are some clever things you could do without a body at all.
Love it, to be really special the car needs to be a bit sharper imo, but then I guess you would have to go with a faster shutter speed and lose some of the light streaks.
Any tips on suction mounts, out of interest? I've seen rigs but they are like £200+
Congrats to j0sh for the victory in the last round with this image depicting the subject 'Black and White'...
...the new subject has been chosen by him and is:

Comp runs from now until midnight Wednesday 11th June. Any photos entered must be taken between now and...
I think colour/accessory options are fairly redundant, as we all know there are a few variants that there are only 1 of (like a Glacier R27 or the Bronze Vee) and to be honest if you picked one of the odd Vee colours you were pretty much guaranteed a rare car.
I would guess that the Exclusive...
Great pics, is this the event where marshals on the gate decide if you go in the paddock bit or not? Seem to remember reading about it once, either way they must be on the ball to let a Lotus Carlton through :)
That Veyron belongs to the young-ish guy we saw last week, he had only had it a...
They are all posted at the same size (Medium from Smugmug) which is 600px wide unless the original image was even smaller than that (which some are)
I can increase it to 800px next time if people want. I didn't do it this time because there would be some very big differences in this...
Here goes again. Vote will be open until Sunday evening so then we can get a comp running from the start of next week.
Please select the number of the photograph and select it in the poll when it magically appears.

A few examples, might be a good idea to know what you are after to make sure you get the right photographer for you. If you can give whoever some ideas of what you want it will make sure you come away with what you were hoping for...then hopefully they will have a few creative bits of genius as...
An amazing, amazing, amazing shop in New York. You have to visit, it's insane! Even if you won't be buying there it's a tourist attraction in its own right, the efficiency of the place is mind-boggling.
Out of interest, what sort of pictures are you after? Full on photoshoot with sunction mounted shots, chase-car shots, conventional track shots and static stuff?
Not good enough myself, but just interested in what would be involved in such a thing. Chase-car shots look brilliant if done well...
Seriously tempted tbh if I'm in a position to buy new at the end of the year. Will wait to see how different from the Twingo GT it is though, as I really liked/enjoyed that one anyway.
I won a 160GB Epson drive last year that you can transfer photos over to whilst out in the field, and I've used it twice (for a 2 day race event when I camped there, and to backup wedding photos)
Bit pointless, imo, as huge memory cards are so cheap now. Only reason to use one is if you...
Thought I would have a go at this for a change :)
A few possibilities, not sure of entry yet...
I'm hopeless at converting to B&W, I can visualise what I want but just can't actually convert it properly.
Take your pick ;)

The APO version has an extra coating on the lens which gives you slightly higher quality photos. If you can get that one at a good price it's probably worth paying the bit extra for it.
