Peeps,

Apologies for the delay in sharing. Life is busy now, but fun! (It's tough being an international legend in my own lunchtime...)

So here's a smattering of stuff from both weekends - there's obviously stuff to view on my site...

The first place - AMA Superbikes Barber

And I had a huge "little boy" moment. Nicky Hayden signed my 2006 Review. What a super treat that was. What was even funnier was he signed the cover, then I showed to the page with the full size image of him carrying the Stars and Stripes at Laguna and he signed that to the right of the main image and looked and pondered on that and then said, "this is good, I've not seen this book before..."

Made my whole weekend.

    I don't know what else to say, but WOW!

    I got goose bumps just reading that.

    Well done, sir.

    Great stuff. I especially like how you work to get more than just tight bike shots, that you try to capture the feel of a place.

    This one rocks my world.

    Hey zippy wave.gif

    Where's the bike pitchers? I only see umbrellas naughty.gifrolleyes1.gif

    The shot that's my fave is the panning shot. That and the #2.

    Like them all. Nice combination of different views. Really looking forward to the start of the racing season here in Ohio to get some shots like this for myself. I like looking at your stuff, it always gives me ideas.

    Keep up the good work

    I used to dream of all things Nikon, then I got the bill.

    I remember you saying that you weren't going to shoot tight all the time, that you end up with shots that could be from any track... this one really works for me:

    and I always like the pics you get from the paddock and garages
