Hanno, I always look forward to Photo TR's from you. Your pictures are always simply stunning, and this time is no exception! Thanks for the great pics, and I'm looking forward to the next update.

I really can't get over how great the European parks look. Someday, I simply have to get over there and visit some of them.
I would rather be off riding coasters!

Steel Top 5 - (1) Skyrush (2) Intimidator 305 (3) Millennium Force (4) Phantom's Revenge (5) Apollo's Chariot
Wood Top 5 - (1) El Toro (2) Voyage (3) Ravine Flyer II (4) Phoenix (5) Shivering Timbers

Time for the final update of this report.

Day 4: Efteling and Joris en de Draak

This update will have a lot of pictures of the new woodie at Efteling called Joris en de Draak (built by GCI). I did not spent that much time in the park after getting the pictures and riding the ride. Still had to drive home after this day and i was running short on sleep ;)

Thanks once again to Robb, Elissa and everybody else i got to meet and talk with during these few days. Had a blast and hope to see you soon on another trip (or event day)

More great pictures. Are you still shooting with you old D200 (or what it was)? Until today I believed www.coastersandmore.de had the best rollercoaster photos. Now I think you do ;)

Why do I still have a donkey title???

still walking around with that old Nikon D80...
planning on upgrading during the next winter period as soon as i know what will replace the D90.. or maybe even a replacement of the D700..

Thanks for the reactions so far. happy to hear people like the pictures and appreciate the effort and time it takes.

Yeah I know the hassle when it comes to upgrading anything. You wish you never had to... but all digital stuff grows out of date so quickly. Hope you make the right choice (something like a D700 with half the weight and size)
