Not the greatest - needs trimming a bit, to lose the portacabin, but as a 1st atempt I'm reasonably pleased.

So anybody know the answeror how to get a good camera shot? i.e camera settings.

I recognise a cry for help when I hear one.
Below, I'm pleased to present, are a couple of my night-time efforts. On the first one, you can just about make out a fence post. I'm not sure which one it is, or what team it was racing for, but it was going like the clappers. The second one, illustrates nicely I think, a bit of fencing, again I'm not sure where this is either, I may have to check the GPS settings at the time, this piece of circuit furniture was also moving away from me very quickly, but shows some tantalising detail. Lastly, a very well composed shot that took a while to frame up, there was a lot of 'noise', and also some green and red dots floating in front of my eyes, and under my hat, I believe.
As for technical details: for all of them I used a camera, and the bit that i normally stick my chewing gum to was pointing up and to the left.
These are raw images of course, and I haven't tarted them up yet with Photoshop (I'm not sure what time it opens). I predict the final images will be impressive.

Excellent work BigH some of the finest I have seen this year.
I suspect the last one might have been a French entry (fnar fnar) although it could also have been Dutch in their away strip. No doubt your highly detailed and efficient photographic reference database could clarify that point.

Try the 'Fireworks' setting, but judging my results it may not be worth it.

I think it's because Bob continues to BBQ nonchalently, as if there's nothing out of the ordinary happening on camp Zarse, that makes this for me the stand-out shot of LM 08. That, and the fact the Brad's felating the Gimp whilst wearing a bowler hat. Like the Kiss by Robert Doisneau, it's the background that says so much.

For me it was more the totally unselfish manner in which the Gimp went through the whole week, little caring whether he was influencing man or woman in his drive for the total pleasure experience, whilst seeming unaltered by his suuroundings
I feel that he may be from the same place that spawned the Stig...

IMO the trick is to be aware of the lighting that is around - when a car comes under floodlighting, its MUCH easier to get a hand holdable shutter speed....

I love that ghost Aston
(Ooer, it is a Aston innit?
I only go for the party myself)
No seriously, a smashing photo.
Brings back some great memories too, night time by the fence by Tertre Rouge, watching the cars lit up by flash photography before they changed it all around there. I had a couple of goodish ones of the 2003 Bentleys lit up like that.
A stunning shot, thanks
