So.... What's your favourite picture that YOU have taken ??
Discussion
One of my favourite shots is of an MG BGTv8 that i photographed on a 'round the houses' race event in Albany, WA. They close the streets of the town and invite loads of classic/vintage cars and thrash them right-royally around the town centre!
I had pre-focussed my shot just after a 90' left hander leading down a 500m or so straight and sat and waited for the races to start. Anyway all i can hear is a squeal of tyres as something goes throught the first 90' right hander which i can't see, but he's obviously making up through the field in the clamour of the first couple of bends (first race of day, still cold tyes)...
As he swung hard into the left hander, something made me think "hang on, he's a bit enthusiastic". Threw the SLR into my shoulder and pulled the shutter. When i got the roll developed i was pleased to find that i had caught a wonderful broadside down the back straight complete with 'cross-over' tyre marks!
In fact it was my best shot of the whole meet and i must have pulled 9 rolls that day!
Its on print unfortunately and i don't have a scanner at the moment... I'll see if i can post it somehow though.

Is that the Ocean Terminal car park in Edinburgh?
that it is
That's opposite where I'm living at the moment
Bit sad someone can recognise a carpark though
