    WRC Rally Sweden 2013

    We stayed in a little place called Grasmarks around 45mins north of Karlstad. Spent most of the event in and around the town of Hagfors (pronounced Hogfosh apparently); then on the last day we were just over the border in Norway. About a week before the event there was hardly any snow around...

    WRC Rally Sweden 2013

    My latest Rallying adventure took me over to Karlstad in Sweden for Round 2 of the WRC 2013. This was by a LONG way the best event I've ever done, if any of you have a chance to do it in future, sell a kidney or something if you have to, its incredible. Coldest temperature we saw was -16, so it...

    WRC Wales Rally GB 2012

    Got up at stupid o'clock three days in a row, walked miles until my legs nearly fell off, got blown over by 50mph gusts on Myherin (those wind farms are there for a reason!), got stuck in massive traffic jams...but I'd do it all again tomorrow! Although there were only 30 cars entered and a...

    AWDC Comp Safari, Nicky Grist Stages & Coracle Stages 3 For 1

    Garage can kiss my arse

    I'd definitely have a moan about the damage, that's unacceptable IMO.

    Nikon 17-55 f2.8 thoughts?

    One of the lads I shoot with (mainly motorsport) swears by his 17-55. He's taken some blindingly good stuff with it. Very fast and sharp as s**t.

    A few from my recent Events...

    Cheers, thats the feel I was looking for so glad to hear it's worked to some extent. Cheers for the feedback Dan, will keep that in mind for future. I have to say though that looking at the original on my laptop, it doesn't look anywhere near as bad. Cheers! The main concern when shooting at...

    A few from my recent Events...

    Rather than spam up the boards I thought I'd post a few shots from my last two events in one thread. Although they were only a week apart the difference in the weather was ridiculous. For the Mid Wales Stages it was like being in the Arctic with snow and hail showers, and then it was like the...

    I can't see anything in the rules which says you can't, unless I've missed something.

    March Photography Competition

    Pretty good theme for a Rally photographer :cool: I'll go with this one as my entry: Taken at Sweet Lamb last weekend on the Mid Wales Stages, that snow shower you can see in the background hit a few minutes later which was a bit unpleasant! I may have stripped the EXIF when saving for web...

    Rally Legends Boucles de Spa 2012

    Thanks for all the comments. Really pleased with how the slow pans came out, first time I've ever tried something like that (panning through trees/foliage). Cheers, Rhod

    Combinations and alliances

    Seeing as your from Carmarthenshire, I'm sure with a bit of research and exploration you can find some disused farms and outbuildings etc? Probably a good place to start...

    Rally Legends Boucles de Spa 2012

    Took a road trip to Belgium last weekend for the Rally Legends Boucles de Spa, if you ever have a chance to go then do it! It's probably the closest thing you can get to recreating the legendary Group B days with f**king thousands of mad spectators from all over the place lining the stages. The...

    Wyedean Rally 2012

    Spent an incredibly cold day in the Forest of Dean on Saturday, temperatures were down to -8 at one stage which made pressing the shutter button a challenge in itself. It was quite surreal driving into the Forest from Monmouth - no snow all the way from Neath and then suddenly - it was like I'd...

    'Route 8' (according to Google) between Machynlleth and Staylittle. Drove down this road during Rally GB, unfortunately just as it was getting dark. http://g.co/maps/gmevb Some views: http://g.co/maps/pssae http://g.co/maps/ymqxm http://g.co/maps/yuzu9 http://g.co/maps/qfgy9

    Welsh Driving routes, photo locations, places to go.

    Surprised to see no mention of the A4059 Penderyn road into the Beacons... http://g.co/maps/tnvvg http://g.co/maps/svadr Relatively short, but absolutely epic on a bright clear day. Another one which isn't so well known is the minor Road following the ancient Roman Road 'Sarn Helen' from...
