I like both of those very much.

The second one of the Dome has an almost "alien" Giger quality to it.....

Thanks for the compliment

Sweet. Now that's one lovely sports car.....

Groupc · 2 Jul 2004, 07:35 (Ref:1023361)

Not the greatest sportscar photo - but possible the luckiest, it was the final shot of a 9 frame burst taken with arms extended and leaning over the pit balcony HOPING I manage to follow the car - quite chuffed when Dindo had the decency to catch fire for me...

gi_gav · 2 Jul 2004, 11:09 (Ref:1023577)

Groupc, you could easily have sold that to an agency or magazine, as no one else seems to have a good shot of that incident.

Sorry to sound so mercenary, but that is a truly historic shot that you should be damn proud of!

Groupc · 2 Jul 2004, 11:44 (Ref:1023612)

I must admit the thought crossed my mind at the time. I was reviewing my photos in the hotel after the race...then I had another beer and the rest is history !

Moments afer I took the shot, the car stopped a few pits up the road and a mechanic (not Audi) ran out with an extinguisher and put it out, Dindo then roared (wrong word, how does one describe that flat noise an R8 makes on the pit limiter?) off without further ado !

Anyway, thank you very much for your kind words. I appreciate your comments.

By the way, a bigger version is now online in a small gallery at :

Wow, some great photos - I just registered here and I shoot mostly autocross stuff...would it be ok to post some for critique?

And btw, cool forum

redshoes · 2 Jul 2004, 21:17 (Ref:1024098)

Welcome C5. Autograss would be more than welcome, although you would be better off in the Other/General Motorsport thread. If you want a critique why not start a new thread with a couple of examples or links (400 x 400 pixels max please).

KennyG · 2 Jul 2004, 21:21 (Ref:1024102)

Any weather, any colour, it is still a Ferrari and they really photograph well.

I agree with there Kenny.

Indeed they do, as do some other very welcome features of racing!

and just to continue the Ferrari theme, one from Montlhery:

I have a terrific shot sitting on my hard drive at home taken by my good friend Julian Roberts. Same car - same conflagration - a million times better than the out of focus shot which appeared in Autosport after the race. I suggested to Julian that he could well have made a few bob out of it!

Those Barron Connor girls were very pleasant on the eye, weren't they......?

gi_gav · 6 Jul 2004, 12:19 (Ref:1027978)

so do you recognise them by the car livery, or by the skirt...?

**Aysedasi** · 6 Jul 2004, 12:19 (Ref:1027981)

I didn't know the Ferrari's had skirts - I must pay more attention to their underbodies next time I see them........

Ian Smith · 6 Jul 2004, 16:06 (Ref:1028203)

This is my favourite sports car of all time - Ok so we are both showing signs of age - But we are both still Classics
