Grand Prix art posters by PJ TIERNEY

Recently I had the pleasure of exchanging some emails with the talented designer and artist PJ Tierney. For those that may not know, PJ Tierney is a graphic designer and artist based in Ireland vho created a series of Grand Prix posters based on the 2011 Formula 1 Calendar. His other work is equally impressive, but he received a great deal of attention for his impressive Formula 1 posters. I have admired his work for some time and was delighted to speak with him about his work and was honored to hear some kind words he had to offer about my own work. He has recently re-released his Posters in a clean, minimalist look. Take a minute to look at his work on his website.

American Le Mans Series on the streets of Baltimore

Last weekend Baltimore hosted its inaugural Grand Prix featuring an ALMS race on Saturday. Despite drawing much criticism about the feasibility of hosting such an event in downtown Baltimore, it was a tremendous success with over 45,000 spectators on Saturday and 75,000 on Sunday for the Indy race. Hats off to the organizers for putting on such a great spectacle. The layout of the circuit within Baltimore's inner harbor district was perfect.

The pictures on TV were stunning, and the incorporation of the iconic Camden Yards into the pit complex and subsequent turns was a stroke of genius. Growing up in this region I went to many ball games at Camden Yards making it a special experience to watch a sporting event of a different kind on the same grounds. I haven never been to the long beach Grand Prix but from what I saw, I would say that this event was easily on par with that circuit. I went with general admission tickets and managed to find some great spots to shoot.
