That's it.
Also, I agree with Paul about Oulton Park, I wish I lived a bit closer and could go more often! |

Although the original poster didn't specify as such maybe we should restrict ourself to publicly assessable corners.
The run up to Bridge @ Silverstone is a great place to take pictures from but only if you have a media pass. Sunny In @ Croft and especially Knickerbrook @ Oulton are likewise off limits. |

[QUOTE=redshoes
I'd second Mike's comment about Mallory being good at almost every corner.[/QUOTE] I thought Mallory Park was one continuous corner? The only straight is past the start finish line..... But Yes... it is good for photography... |

I know this doesn't count, but I recently went to Jerez, with accreditation, and it was a joy to shoot, no fences worth of the name, and you can get extremely close, the press room is fairly central to the whole track as well, so it's reasonably easy to do everything on foot. |

1- The Abbey Grandstands as you can normally get above the fence:- http://www.rdj-pics.co.uk/Photos/200...s/Silver46.jpg 2- Woodcoate looking towards the start line - http://www.rdj-pics.co.uk/Photos/200...s/Silver04.jpg 3- Stood next to the disabled enclure looking into Woodcoate:- http://www.rdj-pics.co.uk/Photos/200...s/Silver41.jpg |

yeah, that's a good point actually, you can get close enough to the fence in the disabled enclosure to zoom through the fence without getting much or any glareback.
The abbey grandstand does allow you to shoot over the fence, the pros often go up there as well, to get an extra angle. |

Yep, standing in the grandstands looking down on Abbey isn't to bad: http://www.forzaphoto.co.uk/2005/spo.../DSC_0155.html
I also forgot about Priory: http://www.forzaphoto.co.uk/2005/for.../DSC_0133.html Alex |

Long time lurker...... small time poster
Thought I'd do my bit for my local circuit Combe. Good viewing all round from the public areas.... Quarry is most peoples favourite as the viewing is good and there's loads of action.... http://stevekilvington.fotopic.net/p22050029.html http://stevekilvington.fotopic.net/p21941847.html I like the Tower though, fast and off camber with little run off... http://stevekilvington.fotopic.net/p21927425.html http://stevekilvington.fotopic.net/p21928773.html Not a fan of Camp, a bit in the clouds but always draws a crowd.. http://stevekilvington.fotopic.net/p21941823.html cheers Kilvy |

Fair point, this is similar to my best efforts to replicate those shots you see of the cars with the Lodge in the background. The pros with the media passes manage to get the cars with more of the Lodge, but its still a great corner to spetate and photograph from |

yeah I quite like the outside of Lodge or the inside but that takes a bit of practice to get whole car in the gap

I quite like the Hairpin at Anglesey. I think Abbbots is a good place aswell, considering you get the sea in the backround....

Brands hatch
If you can get to a day that does the full circuit instead of the short indy one the photo opportunities are much better - no fencing to get in your way!!! Stirling bend:- http://public.fotki.com/stevec205gti/brands_hatch_hrcc/dsc_2463.html Surtees:- http://public.fotki.com/stevec205gti.../dsc_2021.html Westfield Bend:- http://public.fotki.com/stevec205gti.../dsc_2447.html |
