Le Mans Winner
The 2003 Le Mans 24 Hours winning #7 Bentley Speed 8 down low at Eau Rouge on the Spa-Francorchamps Circuit during the Spa Classic
Driven how it was intended to be driven is this fine Alvis sports. The numberplate is facing skyward so it is unreadable (and illegal) but it is quite likely to have been brought here on a trailer anyway. In the late 1960's early 70's Curborough sprint trials was an unmissable event although my Reliant van looked a tad out of place next to a racing Bentley....Happily sprinting still takes place at Curborough near Lichfield Staffs.

Son of Movie Week: my photos will try to interpret or signify a specific movie
I was inspired by Pia and her BaD post box photo. I was going to the post office anyway and took Marla with me. I figured there would be nobody there at this hour, but I was wrong and nearly aborted the mission. I have never been in this much of a hurry to take a photo!
To be honest I never had any interest in picking up the Vintage Speeder Bike. I've got a few of the POTF2 one and its the exact same thing.
But I ending up getting a pair of them in a lot I picked up last year and now that I have them I have to admit they make a nice addition to the Endor figures that I'm so fond of. ...Even if they are colored really weird.

More unused shots getting a new lease on life.
Another drip photo using drops of solder. Took a while to get the timing down and positions right. Using a photogate sensor and the CameraAxe with two old Vivitar 283 strobes set to minimum power, maybe about 50 usec flash duration.
The solder drop it hitting the head of a nail. I think it looks interesting.
Cheers.
A bronze/green paintball hit a slice of cream cheese.
Oh the mess from the larger cross section of the paint ball is... well... larger.
Spent most of the day doing the house stuff, unloading a pick-up truck full of mushroom compost and repairing the jasmine trellis.
I like this shot. Third of three.
Cheers.
Another treasure from the .00099kilo$ store were these sugar bunny pops.
Painted them to increase contrast and shot a few. This was the least sucky.
It's rainy weather here, which is great, great, great.
But it does make my flash cranky.
I have been working on another version of a flash which I hope will make the time between failures longer.
We shall see.
Cheers.
The speed limit drops to 55 well over a mile before the toll plaza...
The tolled portion of Interstate 376 (Beaver Valley Expressway) between New Castle and Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. This section is ran by the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission. The tolls on this road seemed to be fairly high, but the road was well maintained. Also, the road still hadn't been changed to a speed limit of 70 mph as of March. However, since I took these pictures, the road has been converted to all electronic tolling on April 30, 2017. Another thing I did notice is that this highway (and a couple other PTC highways) use a dirt barrier between opposing lanes rather than a wire or jersey barrier.
