Great sky tonight. I will actually post this tomorrow when I will hopefully have Silverstone pictures. The clouds were great early evening.
Then the rays coming through.
Getting later.......
Later still.
And lastly, all change!
Saving this for now, will add some pics tomorrow hopefully.
Today we left home before 8 am for the long journey to Silverstone. Darren and Tina shared the driving and we had one stop. We arrived about midday and the traffic wasn't too bad and we parked reasonably near to the stand. Very windy and quite chilly up in the stand, but out seats are in the third row and you can see quite a lot of the track.
That big screen right in front of the stand means you can see all of the action when the cars are on the other side of the track. The cars pass by so fast, I did manage to get some pictures that weren't just track though!
I don't think they were Formula 1 cars, those are on the other camera. I will change the card and add one.
Darren reliably tells me this was a McClaren.
A good day and more excitement to come tomorrow with the Qualifying rounds.
Really great skies to start the blog off! Although I don't know why I'm surprised as you always manage great sky pictures. Not that I'm jealous......:-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you've had a great day, even though it was a long trek to get there. I'm sure it's a great atmosphere and not something you'd do too often. Unless you had a helicopter and a very big bank balance! The pictures look fine, and not easy to catch at that speed. I'm sure you'll have a lot more before the end of the trip. Hopefully including Lewis.
Darren looks like he's enjoying it. Very cool dude in the sunglasses :-)
Would be nice to catch Lewis's car, but I am pleased to get a reasonable shot of any really. You are actually sat quite a way off and they are fast. It is a good atmosphere and we are near plenty of food outlets too!
