I have not taken photos of Powerboats racing at Stewartby before; the closest from the past was way back in the days of black-and-white and a 5x4 Sinar – I took black and white shots on 5x4 sheetfilm on the Thames of a first test of a speedboat after being built at a boatyard somewhere beyond Henley; panning a Sinar is really not an easy task. So at least I stood a chance with a modern camera! Sue Tassell had very kindly allowed me into the compound for the opportunity, and I was blessed with ideal conditions on the first of the two days’ event.
However, being a two day event, the time taken to produce the galleries covering the weekend means that the post production effort precludes a full gallery today, Monday, so I am simply posting a single teaser shot whilst I continue preparing a fuller photographic account of the splendid weekend.
When the galleries come, I am taking this opportunity to let everyone know that normally clicking the headline TEXT takes you to the thumbnail gallery, where the click on any individual thumbnail will enlarge the chosen image, however there is no gallery here.
The other point I shall make is that all images are my copyright, but if I am asked, and informed as to the filename of a specific image selected, a SINGLE image may be used just the once on Social Media uncropped, and complete with its embedded copyright message with a byline of “Image copyright of Rod Wynne-Powell, SOLUTIONS photographic”. I print A4 colour prints on Premium Semi Gloss paper, should anyone be interested.
Meantime my head will be down preparing the rest of the record of an enjoyable two days at Stewartby Lake.
