This document summarizes Gary Marlowe's experience photographing Top Gear Live in London. While the 2010 event was good, the 2011 larger venue felt lackluster and photographers were given no provisions, making shots from a distance difficult. However, Marlowe believes he captured some interesting images conveying speed and scale. The images are Marlowe's intellectual property, though viewable. Marlowe applies his distinctive visual style across many subjects to tell stories through imaginative photography.

ABOUT THESE IMAGES
THIS WAS MY SECOND TIME PHOTOGRAPHING TOP GEAR LIVE. THE 2010 EVENT, WHICH WAS HELD AT EARLS
COURT, WAS SURPRISINGLY GOOD SO I HAD BIG EXPECTATIONS WHEN THIS YEAR IT MOVED TO THE MUCH
LARGER EXCEL. BIGGER DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN BETTER AND SO IT TRANSPIRED. TO ME IT WAS ALL A BIT
LACKLUSTRE AND UNINSPIRED. SHOOTING WAS ALSO CHALLENGING WITH NO PROVISION FOR
PHOTOGRAPHERS MEANING I WAS SAT IN THE STANDS FOR THE ARENA SHOWS AND A LONG, LONG WAY
FROM THE ACTION - NOT HELPFUL WHEN YOU DON’T HAVE A BIG LENS WITH YOU. THAT SAID, I THINK I CAME
AWAY WITH SOME INTERESTING IMAGES, WHICH HOPEFULLY CONVEY THE SPEED THE CARS WERE GOING AND
THE SCALE OF THE ARENA SHOWS.
