I have been hired by two magazines in the dirt racing world. Three Wide Media; Dirt Late Model, Dirt Modified and Flat Out; have picked me up and I have my first assignments already. Late Model Illustrated has as well. The On line PowerTV - OneDirt has as well.
One of the editors said "Your early work wasn't that impressive, but your later work is very good." I have all those that gave me help from here to thank. I shudder now looking at those early shots, I don't know how you stood it.
Thanks for all the great help, you guys are the best.

Congrats; Welcome to Flat Out
Oh cool, didn't know you were with them. Though in my neck of the woods, not sure how much will be done for Flat Out. I can't wait to meet you in person...are you doing anything with the speedweeks?
I will confess, but those that have viewed my work over the past months already know this, I didn't do everything that I was told to do by the good folks on here. Well there is one that really stands out in my mind.
I think it was Paul that told me to tape my 70-200 at 200 and shoot. I got scared, I would miss some shots. After a few months of slowly moving off the 70mm to get closer so that I didn't have to crop in so much...the bell went off that Paul was right.
I should have listened earlier. The advice I get here, the shots I look at, the advice that is given to others all are outstanding. I don't think I have ever met a group that spends their time trying to help others as much as they do here. I am truly thankful for everyone here.
