Granite City Rally 2010 - NLC

Post by smee » Sun Apr 18, 2010 1:40 am

Some pics from the Granite City Rally if anyone is interested. First attempts at panning shots so be gentle :oops:
If anyone had any friends competing I might have a pic of their car, that said it might not be any good!
Here are a few of the ones I didn't delete.

2 and 3 are very good.
You get a real sense of speed...even in the pic it looks like the car is moving.

John, you've some nice shots too.
I thought the opening stage was out near Banchory when it was only 2 mins from my house...doh!
Played golf instead!

I think it does, wasn't intentional, I was frantically trying to go wider as the car came closer, more luck than skill :)

Clarky I like your banner Mk2 as well, were you hiding in a ditch to get that view?! Epic commitment :mrgreen:

I have some rather risky camera phone and 35mm film pics like that from mull hiding under a crash barrier, not clever, would not recommend :oops:
