    Here's some shots I took at Mondello on Saturday, didn't make it back on Sunday unfortunately :)

    C&C welcome but before you start I know there are lots I can improve with these. First of all I was in the stand which meant I had to use a zoom and the best way to describe my zoom is "budget" :p, being in the stand also meant a big wire fence which either came in the way or spoilt the angle on some shots.

    Anyone know how I'd go about getting access as a photographer?

    Enjoy!

    Its tough to shoot on the outside at Mondello, years ago before they put up that huge fence it was a great place to go, we used to be on the second corner overlooking them and they were so close but even if anything happened they were a good 7 or 8 feet below you. Nice detail on the last on, pity you didnt try to pan for the yellow BMW that would have looked great, maybe try motion blur in PS?
    As far as I know you have to have a letter of accreditation from a magazine/newspaper to get media access :(

    The cars actually don't move so quick when they are drifting sideways so to pan you need to be really up close, I was following the car but from too far away to get any motion blur.

    I really need to get inside that fence :(
