A small rock in the Atlantic: 35th Isla Bonita Car Rally

Rally car: Pentax K10D, 1/20th, f16 and ISO 100

The annual car rally is today, with 59 cars going along the route three times. This is quite a big event in the national rally calendar, because racing along La Palma's twisty roads is not at all like racing round a track. Today's route goes through the Breñas and Mazo.

The road will be shut at 11:10, 14:14, and 18:10. It opens again when all the cars have gone past. It's fast, exciting and noisy.

And if you want to know how I got the background blurred and the car sharp(ish), see my article on panning.
