    Hi Guys,

    For the first time this year (:() I was out with my camera. I went down to St Anne's Park. Its huge and brilliant. Loads of photo opportunities. I've thrown some pics together. Just a quick last min thing so I could post them here + I was just there for 2 hrs messing around more than anything so they are nothing impressive or anything.

    But the interesting thing I saw was a track for model RC cars. There were ppl practising for an up coming event. Supposed to be taking place on the 16th of May but thats a Friday so I'm not sure.


    If anyone is interested in going up and practising taking shots at small, hard to catch and very very fast objects I'll look into it further.

    Let me know

    by the way, when I say fast I mean fast. It was really hard to get a couple of good shots

    But I found this online looking for something about the group I was chatting to. Gives you an idea

    I see what you mean they are very fast, do you know were they petrol or electric cars ?

    There was smoke coming from both cars there that day so I assume yea. And if I remember right one guy was doing some kind of pumping or pulling action to get his started at one stage. but was not paying that much attention

    But If there is a competition (which I was told there was) there would be loads of cars to practice on. + then later there is the whole park which is filled with loads of brilliant photos
