Blancpain GT at Brands Hatch 10th May 2015

Hi Folks.. First post so please be gentle!

I picked up a new camera last week and took it over to Brands Hatch for the Blancpain GT races last weekend to test it out. Here are some of my favourite shots - would really appreciate feedback/constructive criticism. You can probably guess which car I took a liking to..

Nice set of shots Steve. #1 is a classic Brands shot as you say but here I like the lighting, it looks as if the car is in a nice pool of light with the foreground and further back towards Paddock Hill in shadow. Of the two through the trees, I prefer #2, although there is less car visible it works very nicely. I like the last shot also, simple but strong composition, clean background and nice reflection in the car bodywork.
