Great action shot.....flames are outstanding, two tone border matches the car on the right; don't worry about border naysayers, it's a personal taste thing....very clean, exciting image that should have scored better IMO.
Great Shot. I'm off to the Clipsal 500 again next year. If you look in my portfolio you will find some Clipsal 500 photos. I like the fact that you have captured both cars under brakes with the burn off out the side. I think your photo should have polled better in the challenge
Right then, joke's on me as I now have to plough through 564 images and bump them all (yes, all of them) up. There'll be a third run through for fine tuning. It's day two now and I'm running late, sorry.
