When we announced the Nürburgring theme last week, I knew we would get a response. So many of you submit every week, that the odds of getting some ‘Ring images were always going to be quite good. What I didn’t expect though was as this week rolled on, for you to start sending us images [...]
Historically, France is a country where the car has been witness to great know-how, technological vanguard, great sporting moments and a shared passion for almost 150 years. Even if the glory years seem behind us, it’s clear that the flame that drives our mechanical passion is far from dying! The Classic Days is a unique [...]
Towards the end of next week we’re going to be running a VAG mini-theme here on Speedhunters.com. As seems to be tradition now, we’re going to ask for your VW Audi Group-related photographs so we can include your views and interpretations on one of the most popular scenes in car culture. I’ve personally always felt [...]
Although #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER is more associated with photography submissions, we also deal with video, writing and any other medium which can portray Speedhunting. Take this video made by Speedhunter’s reader Justin Lapriore as a perfect case in point. Filmed at the 18th annual Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance, which paid homage to 50 years of Lamborghini, the Ford GT40, the Porsche 911 and the Corvette Stingray.

Anyone else enjoying the Speedhunting season being in full swing? I’ve been on the road quite a lot recently so haven’t had a chance to really take in some of the most recent #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER submissions until now, but oh my, are they good! I have quite a lot of emails to still go through, but [...]
If you go down to the woods today, you’re in for a big surprise. Especially if the woods in this example is Adenauer Forest, and you’re heading there for this weekend’s annual Nürburgring 24hr. In honour of what must be the toughest endurance race, we’re going to have an #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER celebration of the Nürburgring. If you’re [...]
There are many ways that a father and son can bond, car culture being one of the more common and long lasting outlets of recent generations. As a young photographer who grew up in a family of artists, I have always enjoyed shooting with my dad, Tom Hassler, who is my biggest influence and mentor. [...]
Hello everyone! My name’s Rob Blank and I’m a photographer from the Netherlands. As a motorsport and car enthusiast, I visited races as a little boy with my dad. A couple of years ago I decided to take my camera with me and started to explore photography. Today, I’m a freelance photographer. When I started shooting [...]
The rule of thirds. The golden ratio. Leading lines. Point of view. Framing. Many terms which all correspond to possibly the most important aspect of photography – composition. The art of composing a photograph is what separates us all as photographers. It’s the perfect device to illustrate how differently we can all see the same [...]
Now this is a theme reveal worth shouting about. Last week we asked you to submit your best supercar and exotic photographs and my oh my, did you respond. The featured image this week is a pristinely presented Maserati MC12 shot by Hussein Zain. The centred composition is perfectly balanced, and the processing is superb. [...]
I had always wanted to visit one of the classic rallies for a chance to see classic rally cars that competed in the ’70s and the Group B years that followed. Luckily, I didn’t have to go abroad, as two of those legends came to my home town of Prague to participate in an event [...]
I was quite looking forward to seeing what you could come up with for this, the black and white theme. As per usual, the quality of submissions was astounding. What makes me happiest however is that there seemed to be plenty of new names flooding into our inbox, along with some of the #IAMTHESPEEDHUNTER regulars. [...]
Hello fellow Speedhunters readers! My name is Elijah Lane, and I’m an automotive enthusiast/photographer from the States. More specifically: hot rod territory, Kentucky. My photographic enthusiasm began when I was roughly 13 or 14 years old. I started researching photography and learning how the more advanced equipment operated. It really caught my attention how photos [...]
Knowing I wouldn’t have the necessary time to slowly and carefully flick through its pages, I put the new issue of MotorHead on the corner of my desk late last week after it showed up in my post box. MotorHead is the kind of magazine you put time aside for, as you know every beautifully [...]
Next week, we’re going to be dedicating a couple of days to what is, for most of us anyway, the unobtainable. For the majority, we can only dream of supercar and exotic ownership, and the closest we may get is through the experiences of others. This is where you and every other Speedhunter come into [...]
