MEXICAN 1000 FILM AND ARTICLE PREMIERE
The Porsche Club of America just launched my six-minute video about a pair of Rothsport Porsche 964s racing in the 2017 Baja Mexican 1000 Safari Rally.
After five days of blasting over 1,000 miles of rough terrain, the team beat all the odds by not only finishing but winning a trophy, a feat no Porsche has ever accomplished in Mexico. Until now. Continue reading “”
THE STORY BEHIND THE SHOT
Summer’s here and it’s time for a blistering image that has an interesting back story.
Bonneville Salt Flats is ground zero for land speed records. It’s also a cooker in the summer. The white surface acts like a huge reflector that throws light everywhere. This portrait is one example.

PROFESSIONALISM
I’m not sure why it’s so hard to achieve for so many. Calling yourself a “professional” today is becoming less and less meaningful. There seem to be only a handful of people in my line of work who truly qualify. Jeff Zwart and a few others have earned the respect this title deserves through lots of effort, pride in their work, and making the right decisions along the way. Continue reading “”

PORSCHE PARADE – SPOKANE
Busy, busy, busy… Juggling six or more assignments at a time is always a challenge. Fortunately the 2017 Porsche Parade last week in Spokane was delightful. Lots of great cars and people, with plenty of things to do and places to go. Continue reading “”

THE STORY BEHIND THE SHOT
For July, here’s a shot that was set up to look like an autocross, also known as slalom racing. It was created to run as the double page opener for a feature I had written and photographed on the sport for Excellence Magazine. Continue reading “”
PARKINSON’S DISEASE
My father died of it. And now I’ve written about it. Not sure I really ever understood its significance until today.
