Scottish Elises

Some pics from the Granite City Rally if anyone is interested. First attempts at panning shots so be gentle
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!

6R4's are

Has it got a focus pull on it too?

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

Rubbish pics guys, you lot must try harder!

thank you! not quite as good as your one tho!

yeah, i actually had one foot on the track.....poised ready to spring out of the way, i got a couple of really close ups , i was trying to compensate for only having a 18-55mm lens!

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

Dom, we can't all be published on the BBC website
