Schumachers Benetton B192, originally uploaded by Dan Rowles.
Recently I visited the annual Pageant of Power at Cholmondeley. I have been posting shots from it on my Flickr account, and I thought I would try out there service that allows you to create blog posts directly in Flickr. So this should post to my website without to many problems.
Its interesting that I was excited to realise that I’d just photographed Schumachers first F1 car, and now he is going to be racing again for Ferrari. Obviously in unfortunate circumstances, but nevertheless, its going to be interesting seeing him go up against Button and Hamilton, not forgetting those quick Red Bull cars.
I didn’t even realise it was his car until I got the photo into Lightroom and zoomed in to see the writing just below where the driver is in this shot.
Above is a slideshow from my Flickr set ‘Pageant of Power’. You can see firstly the Red Bull Air Race plane, this was amazing. Following this was the helicopter display which was excellent and showed the skill of the Army, RAF and Navy pilots. Infact in one of the shots you see Lord Cholmondeley congratulating the Navy for winning the competition.
Will definately go back next year anyway.
