Summernats 2014 - Super Saturday Shots

Another awesome Summernats Saturday!  Thank you very much to Kate and Bevan for organising my day ticket.  I took hundreds of shots, which with multiple exposures and other factors, ended up at 1000+ images to sort through and edit.  It's always an interesting decision over which equipment to use, you want to travel light, and preferably with just a single lens... so, which lens?  Pentax K-3 body & I went with a Pentax FA43mm fixed lens, compact and can produce stunning image quality; losing out on the convenience of a zoom lens.  Never mind, quality wins!

Winners!
