1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom I at Goodwood by Nicole Hains

Formerly the property of Mr Jack Warner of Warner Brothers, the 1929 Rolls-Royce Phantom I convertible Sedan was just about the most expensive car in the world. In fact, he loved this car so much he had a second made for Marlene Dietrich. We don't know for sure who has ridden in the car but it is highly plausible that the likes of Errol Flynn, Clark Gable, Greta Garbo, Douglas Fairbanks, Mae West and Ginger Rogers to name a few. I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful car today outside the front of Goodwood House.

Goodwood Magazine by Nicole Hains

I have been lucky enough to have my picture of one of the 40 cedar trees on the Goodwood Estate chosen by Lord March for the Spring/Summer Issue of the Goodwood Magazine. The trees that date back to the 18th century have a magnificent horizontal spread of branches making them almost as wide as they are high.

Festival of Speed 2013 by Nicole Hains

Although I wasn't the picture editor for Goodwood during FoS 2013, which took place on the scorching hot long weekend of the 11th - 14th of July, I was lucky enough to attend as a photographer. The event celebrated many landmarks such as the 50th anniversary of Porsche 911, 50 years of McLaren & importantly the 20th year of the Event itself which was first launched in 1993 by Lord March.

The Festival of Speed, held in the grounds of Goodwood House itself is one of the worlds largest Motorsport events. With a turn out of over 185,000 & its ability to uniquely bring together the top F1 cars, car enthusiasts, bikes and drivers the Festival of Speed is an event not to be missed!
