Your work is incredible and this interview was very inspiring. I especially love that you look at what isn’t convential and you find a way to make it work. I hear people say they can’t do or can’t do that because they tried it once and it just didn’t work or that you have to go purchase some $10,000 piece of something or another in order to make it look professional. It’s very refreshing to hear someone say that where there’s a will, there’s a way. Thank you for sharing some of your insights and techniques with us, you are very much a master at your art.

I enjoy looking at your work and it is a true inspiration. I think shooting outdoors brings the most out of a photographer and the car too.

Tim -

Thank you for your kindness and time to reply! Joe is a hero of mine too, plus his humor – right up my ally – his lighting and photographic vision, not even gonna’ attempt comment. His “The Moment it Clicks” book is great and fun, funny, inspires with quite a few “Wow” factors. The light bulb change at the Empire State Building stands out. His Nikon lighting dvds are really fun, his Kelby online training classes – great! I’m just sulking at home this month as I missed out on his Dobbs Fairy classes and I live only 90 minutes away. Sob.

But, I digress – this is about you, who I now include in my list of photo heroes! Seriously! Your work is, to be repetitive – inspirational! When is you book coming out? (smirk)

Thanks again!

Doug

Tim, I do have a friend who owns a Buggati Veyron, here in Florida. Feel free to contact me and I will see if it’s is possible to shoot it. Regards and thanks for the inspiration. innerglowphoto.com.

Cheers Doug, really pleased that you enjoyed the work and more to the point that it inspired you to go out and shoot, thats what its all about.
Privately I’m very chuffed that you mentioned my and Joe McNally’s name in the same sentence as Joe is a hero of mine for his approach and straight forward way of working in any situation. Thanks!
Have a great weekend
Tim

Tim -

I was enthralled with your work (as I was last spring when I poured over your site) all over again! Truly inspires me, and – you along with Joe McNally – now have me excited to go out and shoot in lousy weather, particularly rainy days. I’m hoping you’ll adopt the adage, of imitation being flattery. After your posts here, I think we’ll soon see more wet, wide and low angle shots being attempted.

Really enjoyed your replies to everyone too – kind and generous!

Cheers!

Doug

Hi, I use a variety of lenses in truth, funny but I seem so be moving to longer primes recently where I was known last year for very low wide shots. In fact when I first had meetings with the directors at Jaguar to arrange the seminars that we did late last year there was a guy from their archive dept who made the comment that I was actually a lot taller than he had imagined as all my shots seemed to be taken under 3ft…cheaky bugger! lol
I use longer lenses sometimes to really define and draw focus to a certain area on a dash or the body work for instance.
I have the new Nikon 300 2.8 VR and have to say its amazingly fast at focusing. I also use a 70-200mm 2.8 as well as a 180mm and last year I bought an old 85mm 1.4 from a collector, the really old one, solid glass and heavy as hell, its obviously manual focus but I do vertually everything manual by choice anyway so no worries for me and its as sharp in my view as any lens today. Funny thing was that as it was known in its day as one of the best lenses Nikkor had produced it started to be ‘collected’ by some people that like equipment but never really use it… I got it and I honestly think it was never used more than a few times. As I said in a previous reply, always invest if you can in good glass, there’s no point paying a fortune for the latest body with all the buttons and switches, the latest sensor and whatever and then shooting with what is as bad as a milk bottle on the front…
Hope this makes sense.
Cheers and have a good weekend
Tim
