Unique Signed Cal Crutchlow Print–Silverstone, 2012

Cal-signed

Here’s a special item indeed: when Cal Crutchlow singed custom order prints for PHOTO.GP back in February, I asked him to sign a print of one of his greatest rides ever. At Silverstone in 2012, he fractured his ankle on Saturday morning and was in danger of missing his second home GP in a row. He’d even had a special edition helmet made, with the Union Jack beneath his trademark yellow flames.

Where to invest your photo money…

2012-MotoGP-18-Valencia-Friday-0123

Facebook connection George Niaounakis sent me this question, and I thought it was interesting enough to answer in a blog post. He has kindly given me permission to do so. Thanks, George!

Por Fuera Halo

2013-MotoGP-01-Qatar-Saturday--1366-2

When I use a flash in pit lane, I set it to Rear Shutter, which means that the flash fires just as the shutter closes. For long exposures this is the only setting I use because if the flash fires when the shutter opens, movement in the image appears to be moving backwards.

Last night in pit lane I photographed Jorge Lorenzo riding away from his box. As he did so he passed in front of his pit board, which of course has his logo of the red X inside the white arrowed circle.
