[BLZeebub]

Morni All,

Nearly there now....

Saturday was piddling down with rain so i camped in the shelter at Foggy's for most of the day and made use of my new ladder! So apologies for the lack of variety as i decided pneumonia was not on my list of things to get over the weekend.

Nice set of phot's
Look forward to seeing the Sunday shots.:)

Some well taken shots, inteesting to see of the bikes have like mud'spray gaurds over the rear wheels when the others havent. The only disapointment for me other then not being able to go after getting all excieted about going, is every-one seamed to hug just 3 corners.

Another excellent set of images. Love the reflections in #2, #3 and #4.

:agree:

I don't know how you managed to actually pick any from this lot as you seemed to have as many failures as I get hits!!

Seriously folks, Blzeebub has a PC full of cracking shots from this event!

Ok, so #1 is probably the best, just because of the variance in this selection, plus the swoopy white line makes for excellent composition.

Of the others it has to be #4 because.... well, you know why :D

If I am being a bit more photograhy focused, #8 is probably a better photo though, although #3 has to be praised for its rarity - first time he's seen Donington and probably first time he's seen rain ever?

Lovely shots mate. I don't really think there's a lot I can say to critique here. I'd be happy with those.

I like #1 most of all. Not for the subject matter but for the composition. It's nicely thought out and well executed.

Me old mate Yuki in #7 looking good too :)

Well i dont know about everyone else but for me Friday was a walkabout to scout out where the extra fencing was - and there was a lot prompting the purchase of a ladder - and ending at Foggy's as i'd never bothered before. Saturday was pretty miserable so we spent most of the day near the shelter we had erected at Foggy's and Sunday limits your options with 88000 other people camping in their favoured spot.

Gribbsy - Yuki sends his regards - especially after he binned it in QP2

If they had made it that bad with fences then tbh i am glad i couldnt go in the end and saved me self the money.

P.s theres nothing wrong with the shots them selfs id have been happy to have taken them.

Cheers Russdaz, i was just trying to get over the extra restrictions in place on a silly busy event - especially as they new there would be a monkey invasion on race day.
