Motorsport, automotive and classic car photography
So, to begin with let’s state that I love motorsport and cars, along with the caveat that I’m also interested in many other (and possibly more worthy) things too! My professional background is mostly creative, focusing on graphics and web design, but my time has not been without liberal doses of sweated and honourable labour as well.
I am a hunter and the camera is my gun
As in all sport, the challenge of motorsport for the photographer is that the moment is forever changing, an environment of constant flux. Constant close engagement is needed to predict and seize the moment. So, within this environment it could be said that “I am a hunter and the camera is my gun”, adapting focus, shutter speed, lens and focal length at a moments notice. Where do I position myself, what are my angles, where is the sun, is there a vehicle coming up behind? Keep motivated, be ready and work it.
Please enjoy my work and find something for yourself, be it about cars, racing, composition or photography.
