    Interested... depends on if my writing skills need to entail more then " I went here" and " I saw this"... no... seriously. I've had a few pics hit print here and there... would love to see it happen with some more.
     
  6. Nothing is better than doing what you love doing as you well know. I introduced myself to you at Pleasanaton on one of our bucket tours from the east.
    Here are a couple of things that I have on my websites and I am in the Georgia mountains near the Moonshine festival town of Dawsonville.

    Here is an article I did for the Ford Motor Company on my website

    This is the bucket trip where I shook your hand in Pleasanton when I took the Ridler award winner out west.

    And one more, an article about my old dragstrip from the fifties.

    You really also should look at some of the work of Michelley that posts occasionally on here, she is very good.

    Hot Rod Chassis & Cycle is not too far from me. I'm decent with the camera and I wrote a couple of articles for a now defunct magazine (Blacktop Graffiti) that were never published if you would like me to email them to you to check out.

    We will give it a go. My daughter used to shoot pictures at Northeast dragway and concerts and for album covers/tshirts of local bands and outside bands that visited the NORVA and verizon amphitheatre. PM me for stuff around Va Beach and the SE Va area.

    HOLY CRAP!!!!!! I haven't been able to log on for a couple days. What an incredible response!

    Honestly I expected 4-5, but this is crazy.

    I'll get to all of the PMs ASAP, but in the meantime send me a sample (in the email or as a link) of your work - writing and photos.

    Really, thanks for the great response guys, this could turn out to be really cool!
     
  21. I can write and shoot...it's the WORK part I can't seem to get a grip on.

    Is it just shop tours you're after or would you want show coverage, too? Many events go relatively unnoticed & all kinds of stuff that hides in garages most of the year can be spotted...

    I'm handy with a camera too... & I speak English... ;)

    Actually, that's my next step...international event coverage.

    Definitely get me samples of your work and maybe a list of what you could cover in the UK.

    I would be interested. I am in Las Vegas and have written a few tech manuals during my engineering days and have taken a few photos in my day. Let me know if I can be of any help.
