Formula 1 Grand Prix 2011 (Singapore)

Well, for four years I've waited for this day!  My very first attendance of the Singapore Formula 1 Grand Prix since its inaugural chapter back in 2008.  All this while, I've been watching the night races through the tube, well no more... This is my very first attempt at shooting the speed demons through the horribly thick fences which you can't see in the images (hooray!).  Anyway, shutter speed used was between 1/80s to 1/125s, in an all-out attempt to capture the exhilaration of speed in the images.  Trying to sharply capture the cars around the bend/curve usng slow shutters is next to impossible as none of them would pause long enough (yes, I'm kidding - why would they pause??), even so for the long straights at point blank range!...
