Topic: Thompson pics
Evenin' all.
Thompson was my first Lemons experience and one I've been looking forward to for a long time. It's also the first time I've tried to photograph anything moving faster than the AARP 100 metres for the terminally incontinent.
I spent a fantastic weekend dragging around 20lbs of camera gear in the sweltering heat trying my best to get anything in focus. Turns out taking pics of fast moving cars through a chain link fence isn't easy. I tried to get as many of the cars as possible but inevitably there are multiples of some and I'm missing others, plus I'm sure many duplicates etc etc.
Overall I had a blast, it was everything I'd hoped it would be. Thanks to Ted and the 26 Alfa guys for taking me in and plying me with beer at the end of day one, it was a life saver.

Anyone who'd like to use any of these pics go for it!

Only thing I'd ask is that if, for some crazy reason, you want to use them in a commercial(ish) setting and the pangs of guilt are keeping you up at night throw a few bucks toward the Lemons charity of your choice, even if it's just another team who've spent their beer budget on new tyres.
