Your favourite motorsport shot from 2012

There seems to be a lot of "Josh" shots in this thread so I'll add to them with this one from a very cold & wet Oulton.

Superb shot Gary just sums up how awful the weather was. Enjoy the festivities and see you next BSB Season. Sharon :)
 
My first time shooting bikes in May this year, far from perfect stitch but still love it.

This is my first post (joined TP this morning) so let me know what you think. Definitely the favourite shot of the year, taken half way up the hill near the members' tent.

Some really superb images in here. And i like the thread idea.

This is my favourite image of the year.Previous years i had captured Plato from a similar angle but failed to capture a flash and in 2011 i missed the shot completely. So catching this angle, particularly with a flash (given the drivers nickname) was something i really wanted to achieve. Sounds silly, but my entire day was dictated by ensuring i was in the right place to capture the shot.

some say... that this features as a finalist in the MSV photo of the Year competition over on MSV.com (y)

that is an AWESOME shot! Everything about it just works, crowd in the background let you know right away that this is a race, not just a sunday maniac. I love it! Inspired to try and capture something like this one day. Thanks for sharing.
 
I never got to do much this year which is a shame as i upgraded my camera but heres one i took with my old 1000d and this believe it or not was my first time having a go at panning

One of my Fav shots of the year, i took many thousands of Quad MX this year got loads that i like. This i well remember as i got coverd each time with mud as i was only about 6 ft or less from the action.

Hazza = Harry when you came to the factory for the tour that John had set up, if i had known i would have said hello.

So hard to pick a favourite out of the 35k images i managed to take this year but have decided on this one as the red smoke makes it stand out more for me to other drifitng images i have.

2 this year that I'm fairly proud of.

Tommy Hayden (Nicky's big brother) during AMA Superbike practice at my local track:

And Kimi Raikkonen at the inaugural F1 race at the new track in Austin, TX:

I wish Kimi was a little sharper, but it's a great angle from a viewing tower built right in the middle of the stadium section of the track. Very fast sequence of right-handers.

Some great images in here!

Not the best shot on here, but with my worn out and now dead 350d i was pleased with it.
