I would be interested in people’s views on the below image. Something totally different to my usual motorsports stuff, I like it and think it works but always good to get other opinions. Thanks in advance

1st or 2nd week in Nov is good if you want seals and not too many people. Leave it to the end of Nov and most of the beach will be full of seals.This unfortunately draws the crowds. And don’t forget during the week the RAF and USAF still use the area as a bombing range so stay off the beaches.

God no, get yourself to Cadwell and Oulton Park. They are excellent, Brands is good but the extra fencing is challenging

Thanks Clive, I was surprised to see no barriers at the helipad so chanced my arm. Spoke to the marshals who were happy for me to be there as long as I was mindful of potential flying things. Got the cars nicely as they came out of Becketts. I wish I had stayed there a little longer now to be fair.

Cheers Gary, I hate it with a passion. Every time I go I am told you can’t take pictures here, and every time it’s a different rule for the same place...absolutely no uniformity. I know different championships have different rules and that’s why I have given them the benefit of the doubt and...

Thanks Richard, all from the public side

Cheers Ben, Definitely..I had to tone down the colours in edit

Determined not to be beaten by this circuit I decided to go and watch the WEC (Another series ticked off) on Friday. Very interesting to note the different rules by various series. Places that were deemed ok to photograph from for the GT were not for the WEC. Plenty of sponsorship hoardings and...

No problem Mark, two bridges to cross to get there but I am guessing they have been updated from the time you last went. You are correct on image 3, this is from inside Druids. For panning you cannot beat it.

Hi Mark, No trackside pass I’m afraid so the same shots available to anyone. Images 1 & 4 were taken through the fence on the outside of Druids, the lens was on a monopod which I had over the barrier , so I could lean over it and get as close to the chain link fence as possible. Image 3 was...

Last seen in 2013, the guys from DTM are back this weekend at Brands Hatch. Many views (including my own) have been made about the extra fencing erected and how it will spoil the circuit. Having seen the beasts first hand i can understand why it had to be. Still not sure though why parts of the...

Cheers guys, really appreciate the kind words. Number 1 was a nearly binned shot to be honest. If you look closely at the bottom left hand corner you will see something I forgot to clone out. I had to go for a tight crop as that is the big bushy hairdo from one of the media guys

I was recently given a Big Cat Experience for my birthday. Really enjoyed photographing these beauties. I could have spent all day just looking at the Snow Leopards...stunning. 1 Snow Leopard (Panthera Uncia) by John Jesney, on Flickr 2 Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) by John Jesney, on...

An enjoyable day with speed and noise. Sun wasn't our friend but you work with what you are given :) Shots are a little samey so apologies for that too 1 #12 Luke Mossey by John Jesney, on Flickr 2 #91 Leon Haslam by John Jesney, on Flickr 3 #5 Dean Harrison by John Jesney, on Flickr 4 #27 Jake...

Borrowed a friends 600mm to see how I could get on a few weeks back. Man is it heavy :) , Would normally have gone a little lower on the shutter speed in the pursuit of full prop discs but not wanting to cock up a shot of a rare visitor I opted for 1/200th.. dont think it came out to badly...
