One small clip from tonight (more to follow later). Mishap at the start of practice at the grandstand – looks like a small piece of plastic on the wheel? Luckily, nothing more serious happened. Filmed at a higher frame rate, hence the super-slomo effect and no original sound.
Two videos from the third practice on tuesday. Took loads today again but needs time to edit and upload – should be there tomorrow or so. Videos are 720p again for big viewing.
Just a little video from last night. Sadly, the stills cam went on a bit of a strike, so there’s not much of that – but at least you see’em moving. Video starts on the far side of the grandstand (next to the football pitch), then moves past paddock and down towards return lane – just loads of passes and things. There’s a whole truckload more but I’ll have to edit that first – expect more over the next days. Resolution can be cranked up to 720p for better viewing on big screens.
The 2010 Manx Grand Prix has just started – time then for the usual pilgrimage to the grandstand. A video and 24 pics from saturday below:
Cruise ship “The World” recently stopped by in Douglas Bay. Only got a few snaps of it and finally got round to uploading them:
The MotoCzysz E1pc continues its way through the media, making its latest appearance in the Dutch “Kijk” magazine. It’s on page 52 in issue 09/2010 and also in a preview on their website. Sadly, they haven’t included picture credit as requested – little disappointed there, but at least the bike gets some more publicity.
Just thought I share a few snaps of my new fishing boat. Cute, isn’t she? Ok, wishful thinking here – it’s the German-build Phoenix 2 superyacht that’s currently tied up in Douglas harbour and you can find more info about her here.
Only took the little box out, so no super-duper pictures, but with the seacat next to it, you get an idea of how big that thing is. All pics also added to the Various – IOM gallery.
And here she is super-sized, for those bigger screens (4.2MB jpg, might take a sec to load):

Just messing about with the camera, really – loads of planes coming and going, captured at a higher frame rate for slomo effect. Most of it captured during the afternoon of 05 June:
A few images and a video of fighting Vikings – it’s Tynwald Day 2010:
The Veteran Car Company, North West Section, visited last week for their Isle of Man Rally. Here are some of the lovely cars they brought along:
