All taken with D200 and 120-300 2.8. 1.4x TC used for most shots. 18-70 used for Pic no.1.

Some PP, but no cropping.

Thanks for looking. C&C welcome. :)

Nice set Joe :thumbs:
But just to be a boring old fart I do prefer the "whole car" shots though...sorry
If you go into "Red Bull's Reception", there is a car hanging vertically down
( or is that up?) one wall, I always found that a strange way of displaying such a fine peice of engineering :shrug:

Cheers folks! :thumbs:

It is a bit of a nightmare most of the time, and for a GP weekend it will be much much harder. I've not been to a GP, so I dont know what access you will get. Assuming you have a roving ticket I would suggest the terraces at Luffield and also up towards Club. These areas are prime tog locations so could be very very busy.

[sbisme]

Yep roving Sat, pit staright grandstand for the Sun, thanks for the pointers,:)

My advice, take the camera Friday and leave it at home Saturday and Sunday...soak in the amazing atmosphere. I am not going Friday this time so testing last week was that slot for me, just going to enjoy the weekend minus the camera :)

Joe, as said on OcUK...nice shots, particularly the angle in number 5.
