Sort of couldnt get up early enough to pack up and head for the sunday stages, so we just headed for the finishing ceremony in Cardiff in good time, saw a few cars on the way...

Some great shots you've got there, the clarity is amazing. Reminds me to buy a new camera soon. Can't really pick a shot that stood out the most for me, but what was strange is I was scrolling down and then two pictures showed this guys arse, haha!

You take some awesome photos mate,,if you ever want to get rid of that camera let me know..Its miles better than my little camera..:dance:
Keep them coming :)

the camera and stock lense can be had for as little as £410 ive seen i think.

Canon's 1000D is a brilliant bet on a bargain D-SLR, will take the same pics justabout!

Don't usually stop by but saw your name on a thread ans knew they'd be a plethora of ace pics to ogle at.

Do you have a time machine?

Why Andy? :lol:

By the way, i havnt had it this weekend its been in the shop for a new flux capcitor.

Last time I check it was 2008...lol
