SCDA 2020 - The Banner Images
February 22 - Lime Rock Park
Well, that’s that. My third track day season has come to an end. Of course, because of Covid, my workload in 2020 was quite a lot less than it was in 2019. Still, I managed to squeeze in fourteen events working at three different racetracks: Lime Rock Park, Palmer Motorsports Park, and Thompson Speedway.
My season began way back in February at the SCDA Winter Driving Clinic at LRP. Cold, no snow but always good to get a little practice in during the “off-season.” Then, a couple of weeks later the lockdowns began, and with them came the uncertainty. All over the country, but especially here in the Northeast, states locked down businesses and asked people to stay home to stop the spread. Nobody knew how, or even if, the season would be salvaged. But, thanks to the hard work and creativity of the folks at SCDA, working with the race tracks who were, in turn, working with their state governments, we got the word in June that the season was back on. So, on June 12, nearly 4 months later, I found myself trackside at LRP. Once again pointing my camera at cars. Very grateful that 2020 was not going to be a total loss.
All that said, I want to send a very heartfelt thank you to Elivan, Sarah, Trevor, Katherine, Matt, the Prouts, and everyone else at SCDA for figuring out this unprecedented and difficult situation. Your ingenuity is a big reason Shawn Pierce Photography made it through 2020.
For each of the events I shoot, I choose one image to be the “banner image” of the day. One image to be the cover of the gallery that greets potential customers when they log into my ordering system.
This gallery is every banner image from 2020. They are presented in the order they were taken. Enjoy!
