Wall of Death!

 
Cancelled plans tonight .. as I was going to stray out to Avebury on a star trial - slash - Orionid meteor shower - slash - light painting photography venture, but alas Avebury is in England and that means cloudy weather unfortunately.
 
I did however have a great weekend away at the Swanage Steam Gala at the weekend, combining my hobbies of steam loco photography, drinking, listening to some great local rock tribute bands and just being at the sea side!  Happy days.  Photos will follow .. shortly(ish)...
 
For now .. a shot taken a few weeks back at an old wall-of-death show .. always impressive, with the roaring motors, hot engine smells and shaking walls .. obviously impossible to capture in a photo, but I like the amount of blur on the performers and the combination of young, old, cameras and phones in the crowd.  Listen to this video, whilst looking at my photo and sniffing an oily rag to enhance the experience!
