[Capture] Bathurst 1000

While nobody else wanted to play along with my [Capture] idea, I still wanted to share the photos I took to record the atmosphere of the Bathurst 1000. I have to admit I found it harder to find the things I wanted to, sometimes because James found a passion for photographing the goings on and other times because I was unable to go trekking for the shots, once I was sitting... that was it!!

Maybe next year I will try again with the same challenge.

Now, onto my pics.

Category 2: Passion

This one might not come across, but when all the drivers lined up before the race the whole place was crackling with excitement and passion, so I felt it was appropriate.

James watching the podium presentation. I'm pretty sure there's tears behind those glasses!

 

 And this is representative of my passion. We tackled these stairs twice everyday except Sunday and they killed me! Being 34 weeks pregnant and suffering SPD made them very difficult, but it was sooo worth it.

 Category 4: Weather

 

 If you know anything about Bathurst, you know the weather is crazy. Here we're all getting ready for the rain.

 For the boys ;)

[Capture]

With the excitement building and only days to go until we'll be up at the Mount, soaking up the atmosphere, along with the thrill of my new baby I have been thinking about photographs I want to capture in order to record the feel, the ambiance that is the Bathurst 1000 and so I have set myself a challenge of some 'themes' to shoot. I do not yet know what will represent each of my chosen themes, but I will be on the lookout for the perfect interpretation.

I thought, that some of you might be interested in joining me and using your own creativity to [Capture] what you perceive to be the best shot for each category.

To participate, simply post a blog with your entries, you can participate in as many or as few categories as you want and then link up here! I will post my finds next week and then pick my favourites from the links to display in a seperate post the next day.

I am also going to set up albums on the BeckyandJames Facebook page, where I will be uploading my photos. Feel free to add yours over there, too!

Now, onto the important details...
