A little too close for comfort?

Whoah.

Talk about calm and collected

Rally photography is a risky business, hes obviously done his fair share, and i highly doubt he was standing behind that very sturdy wall by coincidence. Takes balls to do it unless you use long lens.
 
lol that was close
I went to rally the other weekend (Bulldog rally) and my mate was so nearly hit by a car, hes got a shot of the front of the car pointing at him from about 4 foot away, then next shot is the side of the car from a few inches.
Also at another rally he was leaning down a bank on a straight and taking pictures at the wheel height of the car with a fish eye lens from inches away.
Its a risky business getting the up close shots, but its great fun! You just got to be sensible, like not standing on the far side of a corner as they are going to hit you if they overshoot the corner...
 
I really want to go to another rally taking photos. Was at the Isle of Man in the summer but the spot we were at was marshalled so I couldn't get anywhere near that close. Cars went about 3-4 metres away from me at the closest along a straight piece of track.
Love how calm the guy is with taking photos after that though, would have made me crap myself :p
