Its been awhile since i have taken some drift shots, so i headed out to Oran Park North on Sunday. It was overcast for most of the day which was a shame but im quite happy with the results. I was able to get in the middle for this event and it really opens up your options for lots of different angles. I hope you enjoy!!

It was a big weekend for Historic Racing in NSW and i thought i would go check it out on Sunday, even thought the weather was really bad. I’m glad i did, as it was the first time taking photos there and i did fill a little uncomfortable to begin with as i didnt really know where to go. But in the end i was quite happy with some of the pictures that i took and the racing was great to watch. I hope you like!!

www.catchfencephotos.net is a forum i frequently view and post some of my work on, which focuses solely on motorsport photography. Every week they run a competition know as “photo of the week” where the members vote for the best images posted on the forum for that week.
I have the honour and pleasure of winning last weeks competition for my image of Nathan Weissel’s R32 Skyline on Oran Parks GP circuit for an Initial Drift practice day.

Screen shoot from the website. Click Picture to See Hi-Resolution Copy!!!

The winning picture!!! Click Picture to see a Hi-Resolution copy!!!
