2022 was an odd year for me as I got to the point where I really lost my motivation when it came to my motorsport photography. I only went to four events in the end and thought a good proportion of what I shot was trash.
Oddly enough, over Christmas I decided to go back through what I had shot and I found some real gems - despite being demotivated I managed to take some shots that I really am pleased with. It's got me back in the mood to go out and shoot again.
I don't sell my work nor do I shoot for a living - I post it on Instagram, Flickr and on here from time to time. I would like to try and get to the circuits I have never made it to in 2023 - and perhaps to go somewhere other than MSV tracks (I haven't renewed my MSV 4 wheel season pass again this year as I am dubious about whether it is giving me value or not - I am not conviced I ever would have spent £230 on tickets for events during the year).
A change in job means I have the weekends free these days. I wonder perhaps if I just need to find something more to do with what I shoot. I am also making a point this year of actually taking time to watch the racing - I sometimes get so tied up in the photography side, I don't actually take the time to enjoy watching the event - and I think that is vital as my love for motorsport was the reason why I went to the track in the first place.
