  3. Outstanding photos as they really let the person viewing them feel what it was like to be on the beach with the mist coming down. Gas and oil smells in the air and all the great sounds coming from the hot rods and motor bikes.
    This was one of the best events I attended all summer and I hope we get to do it next year.....

    Great shots. That's my kid in @MrModelT's roadster in your last picture. He had a great time.

    You have a fantastic eye and equal talent with your lens. Limited dialog aside, you related an epic story thorough pictures. Thank you!

    Thanks all for the kind words. The TROG event is something special and I really hope that it returns to CA next year. The more support we can show the better.

    Outstanding! I could feel the mist dripping off my nose ...... I wish much success in selling your images. I know if I had been one of your subjects I would want an artfully composed photo like yours to remember the event in the years to come.

    Had to bump this. The photography is just down right amazing and everybody should take the time look through those photos. Just brilliant.

    This is an astounding piece of photographic work. The mental image of you developing film in the dark room and being more and more excited as each image came to life. I am truley impressed with your work.

    I just scrolled though those photos again and while I took about 300 of the racing from the spectator area you captured the faces of the folks who were racing in a way that is truly special. A year plus later the photos are even more impressive.

    Thanks all for the kind words. Very much appreciated! I will be releasing an entire new feature series from the 2017 TROG in the next few days. Follow me @ScottPhotoCo on Instagram for the earliest notice. I will also share here on the HAMB at some point. Thanks again for your support.
