I got there at 9am on Friday, race started at 2pm, I left at 9:30pm after the fireworks, according to my watch I burnt 1,200 calories, walked 23 klm's, with over 30,000 steps taken, carrying a 5D3 with a 16-35, a 70D with a 100-400 and a 600 (mark 1) on a monopod, I came home completely exhausted....it was worth every step!

Thanks mate, it was such a great weekend, this was the 13th race (started in 2006) and as I've been to them all, this was one of the best as far as the quality of the racing, can't wait for next year now :-[

I haven't posted for a while but here is a few of one of my favourite 911s of all time 996 C4S Vert. Supplied by one of the most renowned Porsche Specialists in the UK David Forrest of Strasse Leeds.

Shocker... All shot with a 6DMKII 70-200MKII and 24-70MKI. Still think the 6DMKII is excellent especially for this sort of work. Getting low not having to ruin your knees or get all muddy laying on the ground.

Shot at Lowther Castle, Cumbria. Gorgeous Location, got there just in time after a rather nice drive :D

Hi Tom.
Very nice series of shots, I can well imagine the drive on some of the surrounding roads especially if you manage to dodge all the dawdlers (oh look a sheep, oh look another sheep, ooohh a lamb!)! ;D ;D
Was the Porsche posed on private areas of the site or was the shoot after the public had left?

Cheers, Graham.
