Excellent pictures Cleisthenes.

Nice shots, only crit would be to mix up the shots posted maybe? So you show a varied set of different compositions that show off the Le Mans event

Which camera and lens did you use?

Click on the image, it takes you to flicker which gives you the EXIF info:

Canon EOS 7D
EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS USM
ƒ/5.6 285.0 mm 1/1000 400

Very jealous, would have loved to have been there! Great pics, would be nice to see some other areas though!

Good shots.

Nice shots! Really like the first, where exactly was that taken from?

It's at the Ford Chicane. There's only one bit of fence in the way, as it's where the marshals sit. Using a lens close to the fence basically renders the fence invisible!

Thanks for all the comments guys.

I REALLY like the first one. Cars are far from my thing as I've never had an interest in them, but the first photo is very atmospheric

Nice, must find that spot when I'm next there. You're right, it's all about finding the spots where you can get up to the fence. We quite often hope the railing and go right up to the catch fencing just before the Dunlop bridge. You can also climb up the banking to the fencing on the outside of the big left-hander after the bridge, although we nearly died there a few years back lol

Yeah I know the spots. I have photo's from those places too, but I have about 1500 pics to sort through!!

Really like them, mixture of the cars you took the photos and the photos themselves, but i'm no pro at photos lol. Is it okay if i d/l the pics of the 99 aston and 73 vette to use as screen wallpapers?
