cinismo (2023) (Patreon)

The event was extremely cool; I got to run eight fairly quick lead/follow laps at Infineon/Sears Point/Sonoma Raceway in the new Nismo Z as well as the regular Z. I can't talk about the car yet, but I can tell you that the track was absolutely a dream come true after twenty years of idolizing it and watching it on TV. 

It was an even-tighter event than most are run, with dinner on Sunday night and most journalists departing last afternoon, which meant we only had a few hours to drive and all of about 10 minutes budgeted for shooting photos or video. I managed to sneak in a few shots on the drive route, and this is by far my favorite; it's a terrible review photo, but it's the perfect cinema shot. 

Today I'm going out in the redwoods south of San Francisco to shoot a couple more sets of lookbook photos, and hopefully if I'm lucky I can squeeze in a little time to shoot some pictures of Oakland, too. I'll have longer stories again once I'm back home (and I'm flying out tomorrow; this is just a brief interlude for photography, because I want to finish this book terribly bad), but hopefully this shot is a fun update!
