Poetic photo names, that's what I like! 👍 The photos themselves are really good too!
It's something I enjoy doing myself. Consider I do the whole poetry thing, it's just used in musical form.
Thanks for the visit, mate.

Well done sir. That is like... The laziest post ever.
👍 And it's also the most appreciated laziest post ever.
Thanks for the visit, Justin.
#6 is lovely! And thumbs up for the photo names!
Thanks for the visit, mate.
The good thing with the names, is that I can explain the meaning/relevance behind almost all of them to the image.
While I like the layout in shot number 5, I feel the shot would of looked better with a lower aperture.
Hmmm, as usual your feedback is well understood. You're right on that front, thanks for the visit, mate.
Excellent work in your last set ! Really love the first three and the last shots 👍
Thanks, mate.
Good to see that you liked a few of them. Meaning I have some consistency.

Well, again it's been awhile. I've been absent like I promised I wouldn't be when I first made this GT6 gallery. So I guess I'm back to my unpredictable self, so all is well? I don't know, I'm tired and slightly overworked.
Round Two!
Now, a few years ago there was a set that I did. It was a set based around a 1V1 race @
SVX and me had at Top Gear's Test Track and it was me who came out on top at the end of the race in an orange Toyota 86 GT (Josh in his silver 86 GT). And two years later we found ourselves both with Gran Turismo 6, a new playground for us to try out. Now he's a little bit slow mentally
, so it took almost two years for Josh to realize that he can ask for a rematch now that we both can race again. This time Josh chose a venue.
Away from England's grey skies and Steve Harris, and to Japan and its many people who like to make cars go sideways and have a global cult following for their cartoon pornography amongst other things. After getting lost at least 50 times on the short drive there, Josh had already done a few laps. And when I realised where we were, I wasn't very happy. We were at Tsukuba.
The issue with this is... I've never been terribly interested in Tsukuba, I don't really understand what's so great about it. So when people go on and on about how great is I just get confused. But nonetheless, I continued. There waiting was my black Scion FR-S, identical spec to the one driven by Josh (though his was orange), so I set onto the track. Josh and me were chatting via our radios throughout our practice session. Frequently out pacing each other trying to find those extra tenths to have the edge in the race. I was a tiny bit faster through the majority of the track, but Josh made all the time back in his speed in the final turn every time. Though in the end it was Josh who proved to have that extra edge in punching out a very quick lap in the Scion FR-S almost three tenths quicker than my best lap.
So we prepared for the race, and we lined up on the track. Josh keen for a win to balance out the ratio of my one to his none.
1. Round Two
After the first turn it was Josh who led the way after holding the inside line, I tucked in nicely behind him.
2. Reading the Lines
So from behind I started watching his lines, trying to gain an edge on the corner exits.
3. Uniform Precision
Heading towards the hairpin, I was sitting right on Josh's tail, looking to pass on the hairpin. But to avoid rear ending Josh I backed out earlier than he did. Though Josh went into the turn hot headed and on the exit I made it past. I held the lead into the next lap, and we battled it out through the first few turns.
4. Side by Side
Eventually Josh made it past again, on one of the hairpins if I remember correctly. I maintained my consistency, making little mistakes watching for Josh to get it wrong.
5. Falling Away
And inevitably, on the last lap, at the southern hairpin, Josh botched it up completely.
6. Kicking and Screaming
This allowed me to recover a lead and just hope Josh's speed in the final turn didn't catch me out.
7. Rage
But it didn't, so I held an "L" in Josh's direction, and Josh expressed his dissatisfaction in the result...
8. Frustration
So there we have it, round two of SVX vs Skython. There was going to be a round three, but we got distracted with a 750HP El Camino and a 1100HP Pagani Huayra around Le Mans with comfort hards (there were no winners).

9. In Silent History
Thank you for viewing, it's been far too long coming this set. Considering that race was done late December or early January.
