Those top doorslammers really went, must've been the chill in the air.
My photos didn't come out too well, it was so cold my finger was having trouble pressing the shutter button

Thanks guys.
Conditions were pretty tough! It was dark, cold and I lost my jacket during the day.. I was literally shaking, but managed to pan a few shots.

The Aaron Lynch BBQ is my favourite, just excellent! At least you had more light than Oran Park did last night, I was driving home along the M7 and WSID was lit up like a Christmas tree in comparison!

Good stuff Pehpsi, love the first & last.
Too cold & too expensive for me this time round.

Cheers.
Yeah I'd imagine that Oran Park wouldn't have much light to offer Try strapping a torch to your cam?
WSID has gaps of strong light and gaps with dull light, so you just gotta hope you get the vehicle in the right spot.. Shooting Manual is a must, because Priority modes get really confused and put the exposure and WB all over the damn place!

#4 makes me dizzy. What a good shot - it takes you right into the action.
