Today was the first of another three days of off road racing at Lake Elsinore for the Lucas Oil Off Road Race Series. I was out at this track a month ago covering the same race\/series. Today wasn’t quite as hot, but I would say it was MUCH more dry, and MUCH more dusty… All around, a pretty miserable day.<\/p>\n

I was incredibly frustrated with how many issues there were on the track – I have no idea what they were, I just know that I sat out on the track for an hour waiting for whatever the delay was to end. I came home with VERY few images in general, let alone many good ones.<\/p>\n

I did, however, decide that I’m going to do a portrait series on our sponsored racers…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is how I intend to shoot this series… very dramatic lighting… harsh, sharp shadows… The races are in the desert, these photos will pretty much demand this style I feel.
\nThis is a portrait of Malcolm Pointon, from New Zealand. I actually have shared a few shots of him in previous posts. Today I had the pleasure of meeting him.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This is a shot I did of Malcolm last month as the previous race. It’s one of my favorites from that weekend.
\nSpeaking of that weekend, I need to update my portfolio still with those images. I’m not behind by off road racing, flat track racing, two weddings, and an engagement shoot…<\/p>\n

Too much to do, and too much edit.<\/p>\n

I’m staying incredibly busy though… and honestly, I may hire someone to start assisting with editing.<\/p>\n

Good night all, see you on the track tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
