Hey there,

My name is John and I am a Sigma'holic! :D

Dace_G introduced me to photography a couple of years ago and I blame him for all the money I have spent! :P

I'm a Geordie by birth, but currently live in Buckinghamshire.

Mostly into motorsport photography, but occassionally branch out and do some other stuff.. and I have a slight obsession for the Angel of the North, back in my hometown of Gateshead.

That's pretty much it, all my piccies are on my Fotki site, feel free to have a nose around, comment and sign the old Guestbook:-

Cheers,

John

Unfortunately so, it was a fantastic yearly event for the SSC.. i'm not sure of the reasons behind it, but some of it was to do with cost and the other insurance.

We have another trackday coming up shortly at the Llandow circuit near Cardiff, it is set to be a good day and I have managed to blag a way to support Dave taking pics on the right side of the fence! Hurrah! lol

Good skills Galpin!

And "hello"!

And here we see the "Taity" in his true habitat, pensive and somewhat distant in his gaze, wondering what the hell the Rule of Thirds is all about...
