BfloGirlTravel: Watkins Glen International – 8/7/16

NASCAR track No. 2 in a 10-day span was my “home” track, Watkins Glen International in the Finger Lakes region. The Glen on Sunday is a madhouse – tons of people all over the place, vendors, sponsor booths, driver appearances – but making it even crazier was the announcement of a new team for 2017, as Erik Jones jumps into a second car at Furniture Row Racing with 5-Hour Energy as a sponsor. Here are a few of my photos from the weekend – more can be found at paulathompsonfreelance.com and its associated Facebook page.

BfloGirlTravel: Pocono Raceway – 7/29-30/16

It’s been a couple of big weeks of photography for me, having visited Pocono Raceway July 29-30 and Watkins Glen International on August 7, plus throwing in a race at Lancaster National Speedway for good measure. Pocono is a trip I look forward to because you can get up close with the cars and the stars behind the wheel. Here are a few of my photos from the weekend – more can be found at paulathompsonfreelance.com and its associated Facebook page.
