Project 365:2012 – Jan 1st.

Been wanting to jump on the Project 365 idea for a couple years now but I always seem to forget on Jan 1st! Well not this time :) And if you're wondering what it means – simply taking a photo every day for the whole year.

So, Jan 1st – Went for a walk with my girlfriend's folks. Got pretty wet, but had a good laugh.

Went to a drift day & took my camera.

Went up to Pod on Saturady with some of my mates and unlike the norm I didn't take my s13 but rather just my camera this time. Really got into the photography during the day and had a great time. Really love using my camera for this type of thing. 

Perhaps I need to get back into my photography more often, not just motorsport/car related, but other stuff too :)

More photos over on the 272 Heroes forum & my write-up on the blog.

Unfortunately for Ryan the day ended with this s13 on the back of an RAC truck. They were good enough to get him home at least, and I think his plans are now to SR the car and get back out drifting once again in the new year.

And if you haven't already please support us with a fat Like over on Facebook :)

Random night photography car photos

Went out the other night with a couple of mates and did some night photography with the cars – first time I've done night photography in a loooong time (over 2 years maybe!?) Anyway, was pretty good! Rocking on my Canon 7d with my Canon 17-85mm IS lens and my newly acquired Canon RC-6 remote control.

My mate Stu's PS13 in the foreground here. Not a stunner by any means, but the 400+ horses under the bonnet are something to shout about. Must get some quality photos of this machine soon…

JDM Allstars Wembley Drift 2010 – My photos part 1

As I said on my previous post then, headed up to watch the JDM Allstars at Wembley stadium on Sunday and it was amazing. The drive up went pretty well, apart from a small detour which cost me about 3mm more off of my chassis rail's due to speedbumps bigger than a block of flats!

Anyway, we arrived at the nearby McDonalds where we found a random collection of drift cars scattered across the car park. Shame I didn't get photos of this, it looked pretty awesome. Met Bolf and Daniel Bridle, then headed for the Wembley stadium car park, where we parked up in "car model" groups (s-bodies, skylines, toyota's, etc)

Headed up into the pit area and wondered around, mainly drooling at the fit cars and occasionally saying hello to the odd familiar face or two.

Ended up helping Jungle Power (Kenny) most of the day, since one of my mates Mark is basically his only "pit crew"/spanner-man. He rocked out some red tyres and did a burn out for a laugh mid-way through the day. Got a rollocking for it, but worth it!

Then later in the day, Kenny went out again with the red tyres and ran the wall good and hard

I'll do another post shortly with some proper action shots! :)

Oh, and PS: Ignore the sig in the bottom-right corner of these photos, I made a bit of a mistake and used the Blackett Photography sig that I used for the photos he took of me at Supra Pod! My bad lol

Local car/photo meetup soon + Mike Mancuso’s 350z

Been a little while since I updated, so I thought I'd keep all you nice people in the loop slightly. Not much has happened really, but this Wednesday (tomorrow) I have organised a small local meet-up with some of my buddies to get photos of all their cars. So… mind the gap, these dope-worthy pic's will be here shortly.

But for now…

Mike Mancuso's gorgeous 350z, posted up on Drifted.com last night. Can't wait to get out there tomorrow night and get some class pics. Hopefully they'll come out at least half as good as the one above. Top work guys :)
