I shot something like 800 pictures over the three days. Good thing the film is free.<\/p>\n

I didn’t take a monopod because I read that they were prohibited. I also read that lenses longer than 10″ weren’t allowed. Neither was the case. I took my usual 15-85 zoom, which isn’t nearly long enough to properly shoot the cars on track. And I was so enamored with taking the 500mm lens rather than thinking it through. That lens is really good at being small and lightweight. But it’s slow, and the required adapter doesn’t help the optical qualities. I’d have been better served by taking the 70-200.<\/p>\n

Of the 800 pictures, I only took 86 on race day.<\/p>\n

In short, I failed to follow the 6P Principle<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This panorama was taken on the grass in front of the Turn 1 grandstands. The black rectangular object is not a video screen but a loudspeaker. It’s like a ribbon speaker.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>An old Formula One car running in the Masters Historic Racing series. I didn’t get a program, and I haven’t found an entry list online, so I don’t know anything about the car or driver.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The pro photographers had a window in the fence directly below us. They’re right on the access road, and a van dedicated to moving these guys circulated the track on that road all day. These two had to coordinate what they were doing – it wouldn’t do to have one of them using the telephoto while the other is doing pans.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Another oldie.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This was the only guy I ever noticed shooting the wrong way. Nikon guy, no doubt.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>More oldies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This one came out better than I expected. Compare it to this one<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This was where we watched the race. This pano was taken Saturday. On Sunday there were more maybe three times as many people here.<\/p>\n
