I often get asked ‘which is the best camera in the world?’ – well, it’s the one you have with you of course! 😉 . I get a buzz seeing & capturing those unique ‘moments in time’ reportage stylee so wandering around soaking up the atmosphere at Goodwood enables me to do that. Here are a couple of my ‘for fun’ snaps from the weekend…. . To see more more of “for fun” snaps from the weekend head over to my blog. .

These magazines? Part of my collection from my childhood. Most of them feature works by Harniman (the photographer) and they were incredibly pivotal in my development as an auto enthusiast and aspiring photographer.
After seeing this specific image of the Bentley Arnage from the very first auto magazine I got, I posted a small blurb on my Insta story:
And y’all, he shared it on his!
And we had a pretty neato convo in messages too! Super cool fella and awesome to hear about his works back in the day! Sometimes they say it’s bad to meet your heroes, and I’ve yet to meet many of mine in person, but the few I’ve interacted with have been awesome people, and it’s honestly reassuring knowing some of the people I’ve taken inspiration from are genuinely good people :)
