Took a drive up Castle Combe today to have a wander about at some random trackday and try my hand at taking some pics. As this was my 1st time taking pics of moving objects, obviously they arnt great. But out of 360 pics, 200 of them were good enough to be kept. Random selection....

TBH alot of them were driving like loons. Camera is a Canon 350D with Canon EF 75-300mm lens (not the quickest lens at anything over 200mm). My 1st SLR, not had it long and had minimal practice but enjoying it so far.

I have a 350D as well, but my new lens doesn't arrive until Monday.... 70-200 Canon USM

Yeah the Ibiza is Bills (username 'ibizacupra'), amazing car tbh. Unsure of the Audi's spec but it makes one hell of a noise and dosnt half shift!
