2019 Golden Jubilee MG National Meeting
I have just had the good fortune to photograph the 2019 Golden Jubilee MG Nationals. An event that brought some of the best MG's from Pre-war to Modern times to sunny Queensland, well, not so sunny over Easter. The event included a Concours, Hillclimb, Motorkhana and some other non competitive events over the four days of Easter and saw some beautiful, classics old cars put through their paces.
Photos from the event are able to be viewed and purchased here
Also see the offer attached below.
Last round of Hillclimb 2018
Round 6 of the Mt Cotton Hillclimb series for 2018 is coming up soon. I will be able to get to practise on Saturday and half the day's racing on Sunday.
I'm looking forward to some fine weather (not too hot) and great competition over the weekend.
I have finished the 16" x 20" framed gallery print for the event and attached a copy of the layout below.
Have a great meeting everyone.

Mt Cotton Round 4 2018
Round 4 of the Mt Cotton Hillclimb series was held in great conditions last weekend. I managed to get to both day's competition and the weather was superb both days.
I decided to shoot from a couple of different spots this weekend so on Sunday I headed up into the bush behind the finish line to get the cars across the crest after the line and then moved to the finish line to get them going across the line. It was a nice change and there was a bit of action to be had ! The Escorts and the BMW's putting on a nice show. The best show of all though was Shane McAndrew, getting loose at the crest and finishing up in the wall after 2 rolls. Happily he got out ok with no injuries but the same can't be said for the car. Knackered !
Congrats to Dean Tighe taking out the overall win but only after a hard fought tussle with Michael von Rappard.
Here is a link to the photos. The Shane McAndrew crash in in Sunday's gallery. I have also attached a couple of photos below.
