A Rainy Track Day

I was told by one of my professors that take great photographs, but I needed to develop a style that carries through my portfolio.
I believe that I’ve been developing that style over the last 6 months – more than I did before.

Today I was up in Buttonwillow at the raceway for another track event. Thirty or so drivers turned out for a blustery, rainy track day. There was plenty of sliding all over the track, too.

So, rather than take a bunch of standard “panning with a bit of motion-blur-background” shots, I decided to what I do… find interesting lighting and color, and approach the shots a different way. This is one of many different images I had. It’s funny that I had this type of lighting and clouds for a track day; I’ve been wanting this type of light for a fashion shoot for weeks.

More to come later. But right now, it’s nearly 3am.
