Default Audi Tyre Smoke

Photographers Comments
Finally got to spend the day out with my camera shooting cars today YAY!
I have been trying to make the shots a little more interesting, have ditched the fast shutter speed and long focal length with guaranteed results for something more risky and artistic.
There was a fair amount of light at this time, so its closer to what I would have done last year, but I like it anyway...

For those that want to know, this is bottom s approach at Shelsley, Mr. Edwards arrived a little faster than he expected and locked all four wheels, just as I fired off 5 frames

Hi Merv, very good, you have caught the moment well, plus having a red car against the green has helped. The car is super sharp and that smoke from the tires is good. Would have been nice to see the drivers face a little more.
