I used to find Rally cars really difficult Sean-
unless you’ve got the light and the location and the fast glass-

the 7th here works the best for me-
more uncluttered than the others-

But it looks like really bad conditions-
More engines-
musta been impressive, all the same-

There’s a severe bout of jealousy here Sean. Images of rallys are difficult as the vantage points are normally forbidden ground but just to get a shot of the world leaders in their discipline is worth trying to do. I like what you’ve come up with. It shows what you’d normally only be able to see on the road side as a mere mortal spectator and not one of those stewards with the bullet proof day-glow vests that seem to resist the risk of getting hit.
Lets see what day 2 has to offer.

Very well done Sean, I know how hard it is to get good shots as the drop drivers do move rather quickly. My favourite is also number 7 but I also like your panning shot in number 6, hope today goes well.

Thank’s lads,did not go down today,as you all know,it was p*****g from the heaven’s all day.Did not see the point in driving 2 hours at 5 this morning to stand out in that.

Hopefully tomorrow will be better for the last leg.

Sean.
