Tour Auto 2016 - Five days across France

[RobertC]

Had the opportunity of following Tour Auto across France last week. Sunday and Monday saw the cars assembled at the Grand Palais in Paris. Before heading to Cannes via Beaune, Lyon, Valance and Marseille. Although the event makes use of special stages and race circuits I prefer to photograph on the road sections less busy and much more opportunity for varied shots.

Love the reflections on the AC and the low point of view of the Ferrari 250, nicely done.

Yet again they are all excellent images Robert and I too think the final image, the ferrari 250 is the real cracker.

Too many??... There aren't enough! Had a look at your flickr, and there aren't enough there either! Love this set. I honestly can't choose a favourite, not even close. Very nice,

#4 is just awesome - what's not to like about it?
#1 is a very clever shot, took me a few seconds for the ole noggin to comprehend what I was looking at (must be an age thing lol)

You know what I have just realised - I hate having to do my 'day job' as there are so many cool events / track days / meets that I just can't do. . . . come on lottery, be kind!!!
