2014 Jack Frost Stages Rally, Croft Circuit

[srhmoto]

No sign of Jack Frost, but Jacques Cousteau would've felt right at home during the morning's stages. Worst rain I can remember being out in for a long time. The light was also pretty much non-existent, so conditions were challenging to say the least! Good fun though! Any way, on to some photos: -

#1 One of two Metro 6R4s competing


#2 Lovely bubble arched Mk I Escort


#3 Splashing through Clervaux Corner


#4 Winner of the 'how close to the bale can you get without moving it' competition.


#5 Fantastic Scooby. Shame it lasted only one stage.


#6 Did I mention it rained a bit?


All were taken using a Panasonic G6 and an old manual everything Tokina 300mm f2.8 lens in Canon FD mount.

Cheers,

Simon.

Thanks. I actually quite like shooting in the rain. Always adds another dimension to the shots.

Cheers,

Simon.
