Those of you that know me know that aside from aviation my second and equally important passion is auto racing. This season I had planned on stepping away from racing a little bit to focus on shooting more airshows this year after investing in some newer better equipment. Well, the US Govt decided to screw things up in that department and the airshow schedule kinda went in the crapper.
So, after seeing that, I realized that racing got put back on the front burner so to speak. Well, just my luck I was handed a great opportunity to shoot for an up and coming racing news website and travel all over the northeast photographing the weekly short track racing action.
This exposure has also gotten me a position that I am even more proud of. I was given the opportunity (and took it) to be the OFFICIAL series photographer for the New England Truck Series race trucks. This made my day when I got the phone call a little over a week ago, as I know that my hard work and shooting from some fantastic and not so fantastic locations outside the fence at area race tracks has paid off.
I just wanted to share this news with all of you, whom many have helped, in many different ways, get my photography where it is now, as I know that if it weren't for you guys that this wouldn't be happening right now. Thank you guys and the existence of the NYCA Forums, for making me a better photographer, and making it possible for me to take my camera and use it to go somewhere.
