This driver wasn't a happy bunny after he skated off on someone

else's oil - and with reason too, as there weren't any oil flags out

at the time... Comments and critique welcome as always.

A great shot with a perfect caption. What makes this really work well, IMHO, are the tire tracks in the background indicating the path of the car into the gravel trap. A nice lesson in the importance of a background in adding to the story of a shot. May I suggest an alternate crop that might reinforce that point? :-)

I see what you mean about the tighter crop to the shot, think it works quite well :-) What I posted here was close to full frame.

 

This was a grab shot actually - I ran to the corner after seeing the dust and got there in time to see the driver throwing a wobbly at the marshals. Trouble was, it was one of *those* days and the guys on post had already run out of cement dust...
