Motorsports Photographers
I don't mean to be rude, but that was the most boring espisode of the show I've ever heard and i've listened to each and every one of the episodes.
I really thought that the show was about motogp/motorcycle racing and not photography?
Now don't get me wrong I enjoy looking at the pictures associated with motorsports, and respect the skills & equipment associated with it, but thats about it - I don't need nor want to know how it's done as i'm sure most of the listeners don't either.
If i want to know i'll go listen to some other podcast, read up on it or take a short course.
I want to know about motogp/wsbk/motorcycle racing + opinions, stats and possibly a little bit of the rumour mill and thats why i listen to the podcast.
In short just dissappointed in this episode, can we please stick to what the show has gained it's reputation in??
Different strokes
Sorry you found the show boring. That's why i said not to listen any further after the news update if you're not interested in photography :)
I got some emails that echoed your sentiment and some that thought it was a great departure. So different strokes and all that. There are many aspects of the sport and photography is a big part of it, especially for those of us who follow the sport through blogs and images.
Thanks for giving it a shot in any case.
