Bonneville3

This silver beast was so shiny that everything around it was reflected in it! Might big truck to to push it down the track for starting!

Three good things:
1. Our guy Lee was pleased to be able to walk away from his ride - the Salt was in bad condition and caused so many rear wheel slips. He had to fight to gain control.
2. A delicious buffet for lunch at the hotel
3. Fortunate we have an inhaler with us - the 6500 feet altitude makes us breathless with thumping heart!

Doesn't Bonneville almost feel like the moon anyway? I love this picture.

[Helen Jane]

love the style, which helps to tell the story.

[Maggiemae]

@pandorasecho Someone said - save your million dollars to go to the moon and just go to Bonneville, Dixie!

[Maggiemae]

@lynnz All these racing machines in one place! A lot of work has gone into them to get them so far!

[Ann Williams]

That's certainly a lean, mean racing machine. Superb processing making it very futuristic.

[Maggiemae]

@flowerfairyann Thanks Ann - I stick to this style of processing as it outlines the vehicles so well.

[Sally Ings]

Sounds like it's quite an experience being there. Super capture. Silver bullet pops into my mind.

[gloria jones]

Cool shoot...It all looks metallic.

[Pat Knowles]

Amazing scene, you would do well as a newspaper photographer imreckon. Just glad everyone safe specially as conditions not good, could be very dangerous! Was very dangerous in fact! Fave.

[Dawn]

Oh wow ......

[katy]

Absolutely awesome! Your choice of processing highlights the subject superbly. I can't imagine what it was like to see this in person

[Lou Ann]

Such an incredible scene. Your processing is so great.

[Maggiemae]

@grammyn They are a dime a dozen here, Katy - now I only photograph the weird and the wonderful!

[Maggiemae]

@happypat It is interesting as I didn't think conditions could get better but they are today (Tues). They do groom the courses!

[FBailey]

Really love your processing

[Maggiemae]

@fbailey Its just basically HDR processing Ms F - 3 photographs at different ev's and layered together!

[FBailey]

@maggiemae Sounds all very high tech to me, but your results are fab:) Felicity

[CC Folk]

Love the colors and fab processing!

[Joanna kate]

Amazing looking machine, but so low to the ground, glad they groom the track..

[Harry J Benson]

great capture, looks like a rocket

[Babs]

Crikey what a beast of a machine. Hope the driver fares better than Donald Campbell did.

[Maggiemae]

@joannakate Can't run these big beasties on a country dirt road, Joanna!

Your surreal processing is perfect for this scene.

[tony gig]

Great shot and processing...Fav

[haskar]

lovely pov.

[Delwyn Barnett]

Great photo. Shame the salt wasn't in good condition - a bit scary to have to fight to keep control!

[Maggiemae]

@dkbarnett You are right, Welwyn! You lose so much speed with that problem!

[belinda]

Love the processing, really suits the subject matter.
