They're Off !!!...

Another Kentucky Derby race at Nottingham's Famous Goose Fair. The fair is the largest travelling fair in the UK.

We went tonight as it's always good to photograph at night. I always photograph this attraction, usually with my 50mm lens focussing on the owner and his horses.

Today I had my Samyang 12mm and the picture is somewhat different from my normal submissions, I think the Samyang did a good job under the night lights .

My 2016 and 2014 submissions

Certainly plenty of light here and would be some movement so your photo is good! Lots of fun watching!

The 2016 shot looks a bit as if you are 'veering' towards this - but this shot is superb with quite a different and unusual take. I really like it!

Beautiful capture and the lens did a very good job. Did you gamble on these races?
