I flat out love everything about 7. Great angle, lighting, panning, sharpness. Wow!

[Chris Clark]

Yep, #7's the winner.

Nice set.

[Perry Bennett]

Damnit, Aaron. I just looked at your gallery and you have some real gems in there.

Thanks for the link- I REALLY enjoyed looking thru your shots.

[Doug DeVetter]

Really nice job Aaron (both on- and off-track). You captured a couple of nice twists to some commonly shot sections of track.

I was out of practice and somewhat uninspired this year and came up far short of your nice work.

[Aaron Kupferman]

Thanks guys! Number 7 was my big "find" for the weekend. I've been up and down that whole area tons of times, both for big events and private track days where I have the run of the place, and never saw that angle before. Finding that angle and exploring it was one of my highlights of the weekend. Pretty sad that I get off from finding a new angle for myself, but I love it. :)

[Chris Woolman]

Hi Aaron,

Great set of shot on your website, you really captured the event well. I always enjoy following your work. Thanks for sharing.

Chris

[Jeff Kapic]

Really nice set Aaron. I really like 6 and 7.

[Daniel Buck]

that's good stuff, I'm sad that I missed this event :-( Lots of good stuff in your gallery, so many good ones!

[Will Schneekloth]

Man you nailed it. I thought #2 was going to be my favorite, and then like everyone else I got to #7 and forgot all about #2... awesome job. I keep trying to get my dad to fly out from NJ for this event, but your range of coverage was a pretty good substitute (at least for now)

[Sean S. Smith]

You made some great images,very different from the standard shots done at Laguna Seca

[Bob Chapman]

I agree with the others; #7 is the shot! Nice. I like #2 as well...the brilliant red 935 against a relatively colorless background...though, I'd like it a lot better if the light worked more to your advantage.

[Aaron Kupferman]

Thanks again guys!

Yeah Bob, I'd like to go back to that spot when there is better lighting and maybe a larger group of cars. I was actually up there grabbing lunch with my Dad, had only a 28mm prime with me, and took that shot as more of an afterthought I'll be up there for the ALMS races, so I'll take another stab at it. :)

Great shots as usual Aaron, I like #1 with the Monterey Historics in the back ground.

#2 #3 and #8 are awesome
