Not the greatest - needs trimming a bit, to lose the portacabin, but as a 1st atempt I'm reasonably pleased.



And look, Image 1664. Spooky or what?

Now now Claire, you know Kev would love it if you read him a bedtime story and tucked him at night.

At my age, it takes me all night to do what I used to do all night!!!!!!!!!!!
Then, growing old is compulsary, but growing up is just optional.

I don't do GREEN, I've got a 4x4

The pit grandstand on Saturday night.....



And a few from just before the chicane prior to Dunlop, not technically brilliant of course, but they have a certain appeal I think.

Technically the morning, but many people were still sleeping, about 05.00 - 06.00 at Mulsanne.........

I'm completely terrible at night shots, these are the three best of a very bad bunch







Lastly, one taken by my friend from the big wheel which I think is great - shame I can't take credit for it !!

Some great shots, but it does seem everyone has a problem getting a good crisp night shot.

So anybody know the answeror how to get a good camera shot?  i.e camera settings.

I recognise a cry for help when I hear one.
Below, I'm pleased to present, are a couple of my night-time efforts. On the first one, you can just about make out a fence post. I'm not sure which one it is, or what team it was racing for, but it was going like the clappers. The second one, illustrates nicely I think, a bit of fencing, again I'm not sure where this is either, I may have to check the GPS settings at the time, this piece of circuit furniture was also moving away from me very quickly, but shows some tantalising detail. Lastly, a very well composed shot that took a while to frame up, there was a lot of 'noise', and also some green and red dots floating in front of my eyes, and under my hat, I believe.
As for technical details: for all of them I used a camera, and the bit that i normally stick my chewing gum to was pointing up and to the left.
These are raw images of course, and I haven't tarted them up yet with Photoshop (I'm not sure what time it opens). I predict the final images will be impressive.
