Leon, these are all good, but the second one is terrific.
I like the way the blurred people on either side lead you to the subject. Well done

It's a great place for interesting images Leon, especially people photos.

Love 2#: excellent timing and shutter speed.
3# could be further improved if you can clone the roof on to the sky so it looks like the roof is the sole backdrop

I can't belive I missed this. #2 is great - as Philip said the blurred people at the edge take what could be a more boring static subject to a different level since we feel the hussle and bustle of the show

I too missed this, these are all great shots Leon for different reasons.
My personal fave is no. 3 - great timing!!
Since when have the cars been Toyota and not Holden? (not that I really care) But I've never seen them as Toyota's for the show! Freeeeeeeeaky.

I love 1 and 2, especially the 2nd one, the crowd is captured well.

Thanks for the comments all - really appreciate it
Have updated the photo's above with key EXIF data.
I'd have to say that my favourite from these is the second one - we had just finished having something to eat and were just sitting watching people pass us by so I grabbed the camera and started experimenting. Would have been great to have had an ND filter on hand but didn't, so f-stops had to do the job
It's also handheld - I think it's probably about my limit for getting a reasonably sharp shot from a slow exposure

Number 3 hits the mark for me. Great shots - brings back memories of a favorite childhood past time.
