Pyxis Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 yeah, exactly. It looks a bit out of place. This pic with the plane showing off its angle of attack is much more sexy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shorty Posted September 6, 2009 Share Posted September 6, 2009 I always assumed planes made them, pretty cool though. Those are not the skinny vapour trails you're thinking of... these clouds look like this from the ground: http://ozreport.com/docs/2007-04-20_MorningGloryAtSweers1_abc.net.au.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goafer Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Not one of mine, but I love this picture. Just a shame the focus is on the hair instead of the eyes. Everything else is perfect IMO: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goafer Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) That picture is amazing. I love the complete lack of barrier between the track and the spectators. Some of my own from over the years, most are from before I learnt to use Photoshop to adjust levels and things: Up on 2 wheels. The owner was quite glad I got this! A bit sideways! The guy has locked the steering and accelerator and is climbing onto the roof while it spins.

ReZourceman Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 Where do you live Retro? You should totally come to the next one we go to. Don't wanna talk for Goafer but I believe that to be Santa Pod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Link Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I live in Gloucestershire, so a county over from Goafer it would seem, where are you Rez, London way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReZourceman Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 I'm in Bucks which is like a County over from Goafer too. Lol. Just down a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goafer Posted November 8, 2009 Share Posted November 8, 2009 (edited) Yeah, almost all of those pictures were from Santa Pod. It's a drag strip/show ground near Wellingborough. The pictures are from various shows that include VW Action, Flame and Thunder and the questionably named JapShow. The 2 pictures that were on an actual track (with corners and everything!) were from the Retro Rides gathering 07. That was at Mallory Park, which IIRC was near Nottingham. My old Scirocco was on display at the club stand for that show. I was quite proud: I didn't take that photo. And the more the merrier at car shows! Anyone from here is more than welcome to come.

Goafer Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Wahoo! One of my pictures is in the Scirocco Registers calendar for the second year running! And I came in second place out of all the entries (top 12 got in, obviously). Plus, due to the nature of my entry, they've decided to give me a free calendar!

Retro_Link Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Yours is a great photo. Wait which one came first, the snowy one? because other than that one and 'April' the others are, well, a bit rubbish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goafer Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Bear in mind that it's for people who are fans of Sciroccos . A lot of the photos were voted for because of the car in the photo, rather than the quality of the photography (although I do like the photography in a lot of the shots). The snowy one did indeed come first BTW, they're in order based on votes/position. A selection of ones that didn't get in that I quite liked: Again, not necessarily good photography but I love the cars in the pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
