All taken with D200 and 120-300 2.8. 1.4x TC used for most shots. 18-70 used for Pic no.1.

Some PP, but no cropping.

Thanks for looking. C&C welcome.

Nice set Joe
But just to be a boring old fart I do prefer the "whole car" shots though...sorry
If you go into "Red Bull's Reception", there is a car hanging vertically down
( or is that up?) one wall, I always found that a strange way of displaying such a fine peice of engineering :shrug:

Cheers folks!

First one was taken on the lawn outside the Force India HQ next to Silverstone. My brother works there.

It is a bit of a nightmare most of the time, and for a GP weekend it will be much much harder. I've not been to a GP, so I dont know what access you will get. Assuming you have a roving ticket I would suggest the terraces at Luffield and also up towards Club. These areas are prime tog locations so could be very very busy.

 

[sbisme]

Yep roving Sat, pit staright grandstand for the Sun, thanks for the pointers,

Nope I just made up the comments to keep you sweet

My advice, take the camera Friday and leave it at home Saturday and Sunday...soak in the amazing atmosphere. I am not going Friday this time so testing last week was that slot for me, just going to enjoy the weekend minus the camera

Joe, as said on OcUK...nice shots, particularly the angle in number 5.

Cool set as ever Joe ... ... although I agree about the whole car business yours are spot on sharp and your panning is good as ever ...
