    Hi Gary,

    These are very good...
    #1 and #6 are spot on...good tilt and good sharpness. A little more sunshine would set them off with dramatic lighting but of course that has nothing to do with the photographer!
    Cheers,

    Chris Sedg. :cool

    The only problem with tracks like Estoril and some of the big tracks in the Uk as soon as MotoGP or F1 use them they are ruined for the fotographer
    you get moved further back behind high fences
