Some pics here...

Pretty pleased considering I was behind the fence and only took the
70-200 lens.

Caption for this one, or any others of course?

If you're not a bandwidth pikey and have a decent res on your monitor
I'd strongly recommend viewing the originals as pbase tends to **** up
royally with its resized versions.

"proof that a reacharound makes you 20% faster everywhere"

 

Not bad, and yes, much better asd originals.

Quick Q - are those how you framed the shots or did you crop them before
putting them up? The slight loss of detail makes me suspect the latter,
especially if you were using a 200mm lens.

 

Most are about a 50% crop. Donington is a bit naff for pictures
unless you're the other side of the fence or have a very long lens.
Can't do much about getting the other side of the fence but I'll be
picking up a 100-400L this afternoon.

After getting one just over 12 months ago but deciding I couldn't
justify the cost I returned it. However, I've found myself needing
the extra reach more and more lately so **** it, I'm going to treat
myself.
