Gday,

Just got back from the GP and thought I'd throw some of the pics up from today. These are the ones that I chose not to keep. The keepers I can't put up because the rights etc are already spoken for.

The GT Championship cars;

Pictures look good but your watermark was too overly annoying.

I freelance for the motorsport side of things but I am the inhouse photographer for the Repco group (Mostly taking photo's of inanimate objects on large format for catalogues :( Very not challenging lol).
I think I met you today (judging by the photo on Circlework) out there, we were being harassed by the official not letting us into pitlane :)

They are available without watermark...for a price :D
Yeah I know, but I have been stung before with an online site using my pics without permission, plus they cut my watermark out (I used to have one in the bottom right). The battle to get them to either take them off or pay me went on for far too long and I don't want to have to do it again :)

wasnt me unfortunately, i was meant to be there but i have been sick the last week so couldnt make it :(

i really like the shots before the "Lebanon's broken car;" not many people can be bothered walking to that spot

Yeah, Repco has several trade publications that go to NZ, plus Repco does publish their own magazine called "Torque" that I do all the pics for :) That and we own Ferodo (amongst others) so we supply the A1GP cars their pads. And the V8supercars and the WRC cars :D
Gotta love the industry lol

It's not too bad. There are better/worse jobs out there :D
Nope, no website. It's an internal publication. It does have a circulation of 5000 though which isn't too shabby.

Awesome panning shots, I tried to take some a while ago and it is harder than it looks. Great work.
