PHOTO.GP Presentation: MotoGP Stories, 2013

Time for my annual talk at the SF Dainese store! This year I’ll be sharing images from the 2013 season and some of the stories that go along with them.

MotoGP Stories, 2012 at San Francisco Dainese Store

On Thursday, January 24th, I’ll be speaking again at the San Francisco D-Store to share photos and stories from the 2012 MotoGP season. This event was a lot of fun last year, one of the best things for me being the opportunity to meet people I knew only from Twitter and Facebook who were kind […]

Going Wide

A friend on Facebook just asked me for advice about wide angle lenses, and rather than relay what I know to another individual, I thought I’d post here for him and anyone else who’d like to hear my thoughts. My experience is based on having owned the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8G ED AF-S Nikkor Wide Angle […]

Push It Forward

Last night I had the pleasure of seeing for the first time the film Kilo, which I was fortunate to be involved in when it was in production in August of last year. Kilo debuted in December at the Mammoth Film Festival, but I was unable to make the trip. So I was happy to […]

2010 is right around the corner

And the 2010 MotoMatters.com calendar is nearly finished.

Details, Details…

I spent another enjoyable hour on the set of Kilo today and found it just as interesting as on Sunday, perhaps a little more so due to the fact that the crew were filming an interior scene. Kilo had taken over the Homestead tavern for the day and somehow managed to cram sound, lighting and […]

Rolling!

Had a real treat yesterday, having been invited to a movie set by some friends who are working on their independent film, Kilo. This project is a kind of follow up to the Film Racing winner, Sweep, which, like the other films in this national contest, was produced in 24 hours. Rather than retell the […]

Day of Champions, 2009

One of the benefits of my participation in the Day of Stars at Laguna Seca was thinking to ask if I could somehow be involved in the upcoming Day of Champions event at the British Grand Prix, since I was already planning to cover that race weekend for MotoGPMatters. My friend Mark and I had […]
