What automotive, motorsports or collector car activities would you like to do in the future?

I don't own a vintage race car. I was the caretaker for a 1962 TR4 from 1985 until 2004. Presently my family hauler is a 2002 Audi TT


What Car Clubs, Racetracks or Motorsport Sanctioning Bodies, (e.g. F1, NASCAR, Indycar, IMSA, WRC) interest you?

Primarily meeting the people and documenting the vintage racing community.

"My long lens is a 300 F4 with a Kenko 1.4 extension. Much of the weekend's stuff at Infineon was shot with my 80-300 4.5-5.6 zoom. The stuff at PIR was done with a rented 80-400 4.5-5.6 VR lens. I'm looking seriously at the Sigma 50-500 as a…"

"On the whole swell... I do miss my friends back in Illinois, but being closer to the grand kids is making it a whole lot easier dealing with the changes.

I hope you all are well and happy.

  • Great photos Greg! I particularly like the UOP Shadow.
  • Only painful because I take a lot of grief for being a NIKON user in our local photo society meetings. :) BUT, they will have to pry it out of my cold, dead fingers. How long a lens did you use for the track shots?
  • Good it goes. Been wondering about you.

    ELVF was swell. You were missed. Vintage Stockers were a bust but RA was the star - as usual. The Ridgeline was great. It may be the perfect photo-assault vehicle. Mileage is not stellar but I expected that. Nice to finally have my Man Card. It negates the Barbie effect of the Miata. I guess that makes me gender neutral. umm. I think I've worked on a college campus too long.

    later. take care.
  • GREAT photo work. I have to ask the obvious and painful question, however: NIKON or CANON???
  • Gregory.
    Some of the nicest images I have seen from Sears and Portland. Congratulations on the nice work. Dennis
