Looking for a photo....

Postby aardvark » Fri Dec 21, 2007 3:08 pm

I'm looking for a photo of an empty(ish) pit lane. Preferably Phillip Island, but not overly fussed if it isn't. The higher the resolution, and the bigger the photo, the better.

Something similar to these:

If you have something in your collection of photos, and don't mind me using it for a bit of art, please let me know.

Yeah mate, just like that. Doesn't really matter what's in the background that much as most of it will be cropped.

I need the angle and shadows to be "just right", so the more I have to choose from, the better.

Got it any bigger?

Smitty, I keep looking for the race track but all I seem to see is a taxi rank. Bloody taxi racing :)

Close.... just tried them and if it wasn't for the cars and all the poles the second one would be nearly spot on.

brings up quite a few good ones.


Yeah, thanks mate, tried that already. There's some good shots there, but they're all a bit small. I'm looking to stretch the image for printing at about A3, so the bigger the photo the better.
