    Foreign Stocks

    Here are a few from this past Saturday, first time shooting them since the late "80s"
    Some good some bad here are a few of the mostly VW aircooled powered cars with cutdown late model bodies. One good one of a female midget driver!

    nice job Jimmy, they need a tad bit of lightning to get rid of the shadows, but very good color. Not much you can do with the windshield glare though...nature of the beast...

    Nice job Jimmy. I've always loved auto racing but haven't really shoot any since my brother quit driving a few years ago. Your photos make me want to get back out there.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Thanks JS and OT. It was fun to go and shoot these folks. I had the gig as their photographer back in 85-89. Some one put a wrench in my hand and the camera got put away for too long, glad to be behind the lens again for sure.
    Better pics will be coming when we go to a more photographer friendly track!
