Your desktop for June 2015 has finally arrived. This picture was taken back in 2012 on our trip to Ireland. Heidi and I were driving to Cork to see the Waterford museum and factory and we came across some beautiful vistas so taking some pictures became mandatory.

May 2015 Desktop Calendar
Feels like forever since I've written, and I'm sorry about that. I'll try to stay more current in the upcoming months. Your May calendar photo is from trip my wife and I took to Sedona AZ last year. It seems there are beautiful vistas everywhere in Sedona, so capturing a wonder like this isn't to hard. We were right off the road obviously.

April 2015 Desktop Calendar
This month's desktop calendar picture is from a trip my wife and I took late last year to Sedona AZ. We had enough time during one of our days there to visit the Grand Canyon. If you've never been, I can't describe what an amazing place it is. One tiny world of advice about visiting the Grand Canyon as a photographer. You need some weather for the best pictures. If there's no clouds in the sky, or fog in the canyon, it just looks like a big ugly hole. Weather, even a tiny bit, makes it miraculous. You can download the high resolution desktop here: April 2015
Joey Logano collects the checkered flag as he does a burnout along the front stretch after winning the Axalta 200 Xfinity series race at Phoenix International Raceway in Avondale , AZ.
NASCAR at Phoenix International Raceway
From the Outside Looking in:
Covering NASCAR events allows me unique views of the action at the track. Being on the outside during the Phoenix weekend allowed me to capture a few things I don't often get to photograph. My favorite was this picture of Joey Logano after he won the Xfinity race on Saturday. He turned his car around after crossing the finish line and erupted his racecar in a rolling burnout that extended along the front stretch. The checkered flag was tossed to him on the way by. The good part for me about being on the outside of the racetrack is that from the inside much of this scene is obscured by the cement retaining wall (the wall that has the Camping World sign on it). Plus it looks pretty cool with the Phoenix International Raceway sign and the mountains in the background. Here are a few more of my favorites from the Spring Phoenix NASCAR 2015 event You can see many more NASCAR pictures on the Action Sports Photography website
The FedEx Hauler rolls down the Las Vegas strip to deliver their race car to Las Vegas Motor Speedway
NASCAR at Las Vegas Motor Speedway
Who doesn't enjoy a visit to the strip in Las Vegas? That's exactly how NASCAR begins it's weekend in Nevada. Thursday evening the NASCAR teams enter town in parade form as the lumbering race car haulers begin there majestic drive down the world renown Las Vegas Boulevard. Traffic is halted by police as the procession lumbers along with air horns blaring. Crowds fill the concourses above the neon lit pathway and clamber along the barricades to catch a glimpse of their heroes, the motor sports gladiators. It was a special, regal event through Sin City marking the arrival of NASCAR in western United States for 2015. Here's a few of my favourite pictures from the weekend.
