AMPA 2024

The winners of the first Amateur Motorsport Photography Awards by Trackside Focus were announced and my image from the Malton Rally took the category win for best ‘On Track Action’ of 2024.

I’m extremely proud to receive the honour and the win for a very difficult category that featured amazing images from across the nation.

The shot was taken on a tight right hander that had the drivers pulling the handbrake and fighting for grip just in front of a white rose Yorkshire flag (the best flag in the world in my opinion).

I panned with the Hyundai I20 R5 of Kyle White and Anthony Nestor at 1/40 shutter speed in high 10fps burst mode on my Fujifilm Xh2 equipped with the XF 16mm f1.4.

The final shot turned out exceptionally well, so well that the judges saw fit to award me with the inaugural honours of best ‘On Track Action’ shot.

The awards were also featured in a few press/zines on photography which I have shared below.

There’s also 5 limited edition prints of this shot available on my store here. If these are popular I will order more for sale!

Onwards and Upwards for 2025!
