The year that was......

November 21, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

Well I have survived a a whole year of  Home Grown Motorsports. Every round of the State Rally Championship, most of Barbagallo's Events and of course Targa West, Targa South West, Forest Rally. Next year I'm travelling overseas again mainly Japan and Europe so my photographic coverage of local events many suffer a little. But the travel photos will be great. If you see my mojo please return it co's at the moment I'm running on empty and a steady supply of filtered coffee, oh coffee the elixir of life.


Sleep is Nice

Just complete the Quit Targa West 2014 in more than one way. A two day event gives you lots of photos to edit and

upload. But a four day just exhausts you mentally and physically. My editing system sucks so it is so blahh.

Each night after standing and walking and driving your head says show me me the pillow, your eyes scream as

you turn on the computer screen, and upload another card of photos. Staring at the screen at shots that all look the same trying to find the best.  But that is behind me now or is it. Notice as you get tired your creativity goes out the window. On the last day I was just pointing and shooting. If I looked like some of my associates red eyes, red  faces, dragging feet. I would not have made a pretty sight. But then I can not wait till next year. That is what photography is about. All that glamour..............Not.


Boddington Rally

June 02, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

The Newmont Boddington Gold  Rally has come and gone and a great time was had by all.

It was great to see the familiar faces on the side line and some new ones. The weather at

times did not help my photo taking but I managed to get some shots, the conditions even

made some different images to normal. Tim Allott was my companion for some of the time.

That hill to the jumps was steep by gave some great shots. But I seemed to be in the wrong

place at each exciting happening. Brian White was in the crowd on Sunday quietly doing what

Brian does. All the crews performed well and organisation seemed to be organised so everything

ran smoothly. Will be there again next year maybe a little wiser but definitely keener.


Quit Targa Southwest

May 18, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

This weekend I'm off to the Targa Southwest Rally. Its small but good rally to attend.

And for a change I have a nice warm bed and a fire makes a good change from the swag

Last week end was the V8's at Barbagello Raceway good but a horror to get a good position to take

photos. Got a few keepers they will be uploaded in the next few weeks.


Trade Hire Donnely Rally

May 08, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

Early tomorrow morning I head down south for the Trade Hire Donnelly Rally. It has been raining for the last few days so

it will make the conditions interesting and photo ops plenty. My son Stephen is coming with me he is a photographer too.

Sunday Afternoon the first shots should be on my site. Hopefully we will get some buyers this round. I have tons of lookers but

very few buyers. I know money is tight in some classes but my car doesn't run on air and I can not pay bills with good will.

But it is the sport, the adventure, the thrill that is the real draw card.
