p.1 #1 · IndyCar weekend at Watkins Glen


My take of this weekend at Watkins Glen. I felt under the weather on Saturday and so sick on Sunday I only stayed for 20 laps of the main event IndyCar race and watched the rest of TV from the hotel. Pretty disappointed with my take but here they are regardless. Hope you enjoy.

The full set can be seen here in my PhotoShelter archive

very strong series, some very interesting and unique comps in there, great job, too bad you were not feeling well. I think it would be pretty cool to see the IndyCars run at that circuit.

And here is a link to the photos on Photoshelter, where the photos are available as digital downloads or prints if your cousin's family is interested.

I'll probably also be at Mid-Ohio for the Indy/ALMS/Speed GT-TC weekend if they're interested in hiring a photographer ;-)

Many thanks Will, I'll pass them along to him. I was there as family this past weekend, didn't want to spend a bunch of time shooting. Spent more time in the pits and all that fun stuff!

Too bad he had an issue with the launch control on the start, first time ever using it!

I really like 4...and 9, if I could get over the BG car that I can't stop looking at.

I've never been to a car race, so I'm not sure what the overriding dogma may be, but the WAs, especially the verticals feel so empty. But that leads me to believe they were done intentionally, so TIFWIW.
