Cold though good conditions, nice event with a good turnout of entries. Gave James the 760D with a 70-300 zoom attached. Never used a DSLR before nor indeed a camera other than his phone camera. After the briefest of instructions, which was mostly "don't drop it or I'll kill you" repeated err.. repeatedly. He came up with these..

Last six taken by James. I'd be pleased with these shots tbh. He's over the moon. Quattro shots are favourite. Great Job.

James has an eye. Nice!

Some nice ones there from James, Mike. That's not bad for a beginner specially with those instructions ringing in his ear !!

Mike,

Some great pictures from you both, James did particularly well for his first shots with a DSLR, perhaps too good, will you be letting him come along again

Nice one Steve, Mark. Thank you you both for the great company as always. James and I did laugh to ourselves all the way home re: Marks discontent at the Brands Hatch Machine especially getting stung for £21 in total at the gate. Hope you got your monies worth Mark
