BSB STORM ON THE MOUNTAIN

[GAZA62]

Well what a storm that was drove back on flooded roads to our hotel and had our first few beers under candle light due to lightning hitting the sub station down the road what a bang that made anyway back to the racing.

I started off outside the bar looking back on the mountain but was not pleased with the shots due to the crowd in the background to much going on for me then moved the the latter part of Halls Bends and the Hairpin I then headed to the bottom of the Mountain only to discover add hoardings in the way again on the Sunday I started at the earlier part of Halls Bends then headed out to Charlies where I needed more reach but managed some keepers with big crops will try a bigger lens next year as these spots could produce some nice shots.

Thanks for looking.

Know what you mean about the storm Gary, worst I think I've driven in, good to be at a different circuit for a change though. Great eyes in shots numbered #5 & #7 and like the more scene setting shot in #4.

Don't know much about this type of photography but #4 stands out as something different to ones I have normally seen and it really made me stop and look. Also really liked #5, great detail and like that you can see his eyes.

I certainly was Sam my Brother inlaw and I had the room at the end of the garden we were just about to walk into the bar when it hit and took out the electrics was not happy as I had been looking forward to a cool pint and some food but all was sorted in the end and a nice place to stay shame we missed the breakfast as we wanted to get to the circuit early Sunday morning.

Fantastic images!

Thanks a lot Chris

Fantastic set of photos, my fav has to be number 4, it would have been 3, but for the sign in the background.

Thanks Graham was using my 300f4 but shot 11 is a huge crop and 3+4 are also big crops I do have a 1.4 converter that I should have took but I reckon a 500 would be better I will most likely rent one for next year as it would not get enough use to justify buying one.
