Where They Raced by Harry Pallenberg

Met some friends the other day on the edge of night and over a few three fingers of Jack, the subject of ol' racing in Los Angeles became the topic, then one thing lead to the other and I told them about how I had been contacted about a film on just that subject. Here's the plot...back in the day they raced everywhere they could, before population and congestion buried it all.

If the Jetsons Could Drive...

If the "Jetsons" could drive an ol' Porsche, a Porsche Convertible D 1600 Super to be exact, this could have been them...  If you're patient enough, you'll eventually see everyone in town coming out of either Taco Bell or Starbucks to check it out. Well, almost everybody.

Announcing "Along For The Ride Image Works"

If  there's one thing that I've always lacked, it's seriousness, like Charlie McCarthy. Well, I've always lacked a lot of things, but seriousness is right up there with the leaders. In fact, my lack of seriousness is so great that it sucks up the oxygen in whatever room I'm in, causing others present to swell up and appear to have increased seriousness with frowns, thereby reducing my own seriousness. If left to its own devices, this phenomenon, could eventually result in my disappearance into a serious-version of the black hole. Well, not really.

Now, in all seriousness, to the point of this post. I started a photo site not long ago called "Along For The Ride Image Works" for my photographic art prints. It's comprised of Automotive related prints that are available for purchase. Please, take the time to stop by and check it out. I'm always adding new images as the days go by.

This is an image I shot of automobilia that was juried into the San Diego Art Institute in Balboa Park. The juror selected 60 out of the 200 entries submitted. I'm happy to say, I had two entries accepted, with this one entitled "Not my Circus" receiving an "Honorable Mention."  You can find my photo site by clicking, "Along For The Ride Image Works."
