Early entry from me this time, since I visited here specially for this month! A better day would have been good, but not likely to be back here anytime soon. Yashicamat 124G, Acros 100 in ID-11.

Race Car Wheel Alignment:

Commonly known as 'stringing-up' - the race technician runs fishing line down each side of the car then measures at the front and back of each wheel rim to check the wheel alignment.

Rolleiflex 6003, Rollei PQ 80mm f2.8 Planar, Ilford Delta 100. (Developed in Ilfosol 3 & scanned on Epson 850)

So here's my take on wheels. This old OO gauge engine, "Princess Elizabeth" was my Dad's and was last run by my son a few years ago. I shot this on my new toy, an MPP Micro Technical with a 120 roll film back on Ilford Delta 400, there is just a hint of Scheimpflug to get the whole loco in focus without it being square on to the camera.

I've been framed.....
 
I suppose I must not get deflated. Just need to move up a gear.

There are some wonderful photographs,my last two votes came second and third,so good luck to all.

Just one more thing. GO MRS SNAP.
