This week: I’m at Thruxton Motor Circuit in Hampshire once again, this time talking whilst trackside. Whilst last week’s show (Part 1) was something of an overview, this time around I’m right in the thick of the action and thinking on my feet as the truck racing takes place in front of my lens. Some quick [...]

This week: I’m in the car once again, travelling back from a day’s photography at Thruxton Motor Circuit in Hampshire. Over the course of this weekend just gone, I took up an invitation to photograph some fast-paced truck racing action. On this occasion, I wasn’t under commission – so it made a really nice change [...]

This week: I’m talking through a recent Christmas-themed commission. Every year, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard puts on its Victorian Festival Of Christmas event – and I was asked to document proceedings a couple of days ago, with the pictures destined for all manner of promotional opportunities in the coming weeks and further into the future. Some [...]

I never get tired of seeing my work published in books and magazines. Here’s another quick example, further to this post… Ok, so you know that as ever, I was recently under commission from Goodwood at this year’s Revival event. The pictures I shot were destined to end up all over the world, in sponsor reports, [...]

This week: It’s midnight and I’m in full editing mode, at the same time sharing a few thoughts about what I got up to whilst under commission from Goodwood once again this past weekend. The Goodwood Revival is always an excellent vintage-themed show, spanning 3 days, with opportunities for making great pictures everywhere you look. [...]

This week: I’m on the road again, this time sharing a few thoughts about time. More precisely, I’m addressing the matter of just how much time is taken up during the course of undertaking an assignment, as well as in my day-to-day activities. People often forget about what goes on behind the scenes – all the [...]

This week: I’m bringing you my third and final recording made live at this year’s Goodwood Festival Of Speed. On this particular occasion, I’m heading out into the motorsport paddock one blustery evening, to see what striking images I can get with a very simple setup – one camera, one super-wideangle lens and a tripod. [...]

This week: I’m bringing you the second of my recordings made live at this year’s Goodwood Festival Of Speed. Once again, I’m stood in front of Goodwood House, photographing a fireworks display and fast, loud cars at night. Oh, and I also have an exciting announcement to make! Some quick links to things mentioned in [...]

This week: I’m heading back from the Goodwood Festival Of Speed, sharing a few thoughts about this year’s motoring event. With fast-paced cars, motorbikes, extreme sports, display stands and more, it was a busy few days under commission from Goodwood once again, so my view of the event was a somewhat hectic one. Some quick [...]

This week: I’m looking back on a somewhat high-pressured moment at last month’s Goodwood Revival, a vintage-themed event set within the beautiful West Sussex countryside. The Revival is an excellent 3-day event, something of a photographer’s dream – with opportunities for making great pictures everywhere you look. This episode finds me heading back from the [...]
