Motor Sports

In auto racing, the spectacle of the speed, the sound and the setting overwhelm the significance of the drivers, their courage and talent. A still photograph that communicates the velocity and direction of the instant as well as the emotional and physical activity of the driver depicts the entire situation.

John has recently completed and published "In Your Grill... a full frontal look at fascinating motoring cars" in hardback. This book is a portrait collection of fabulous automobiles John has encountered during his travels in motorsports. 50 vintage vehicles from the 1930's to present are depicted in black background isolation to highlight the ingenious designs used throughout the evolution of these fine automobiles.

John has covered the American Le Mans Series, The 24 hours of Le Mans, Grand Am, Champ Car, IRL, Toyota Atlantic, Speed World Challenge and various club events. He loves to immerse himself within a team or series for an extended period of time and strives to illustrate the whole story in a photographic narrative, from the paddock to the podium.

John is a regular contributor to the photo galleries atRace Central Media.
