Wow David, I'm impressed, it looks like you got a stack of keepers in that lot! They are amazing photos, your panning must have been spot on because the sense of movement is fantastic! Well done!

Very much so Redline, and for the better in my opinion. As for the trasure I think they can keep it.

Hi there Wisie,

The action was insane. Thanks for the comments. Apparently there were 7000 spectators for the Sunday.

Did you take any David? I'd be keen to see what you got! Those girls were really easy going and keen as custard to get on my car for some shots, they even wanted to do a follow up shoot some time. :o

Excellent work there Rainey, so when is the follow up shoot scheduled for?

I got some of them from the presentations after the final battle. Will have a look for them tonight and post them up here.

Hey David, here is the original picture. I'm interested to see what sort of magic you can do with it. As you can see I had already given it a touchup.

I agree TassieD, that first one and the others from the same angle it in your gallery were awesome!

Is that the best model they could find in Tassy though... :P
