Beside clients work, one of my favorite photography subjects are cars, especially very fast race cars at night. This is where I can experiment and try a typical things. It is also test bench to try new processing tools and techniques that I can apply on work images.

Client hired me to photograph his car. Called me two years later to photograph his next project

Client hired me for the second time to shoot his second car build. The images are displayed in a unique hotel off the Blue Ridge Parkway in Virginia.

More, un-catalogued work. I enjoy just photographing things I see at the moment. I don't look for themes but I get ready for opportunities when I can. I always wanted to take a photo coming in Manhattan just before the 125th street train station. There is a nice view of the elevated track as you cross the Harlem River and the track takes its final curve before Grand Central. Well, I never did! I did however on my last trip seat in the last car and suddenly realize that shooting from the opposite direction was of equal interest and clouds in the sky were perfect
