Chris Bannister

Chris started getting involved with photography whilst at school, which is many more years than he cares to remember…Glued to the box during the mid 80’s into the 90’s watching the Rallycross and Rallying, it was during this time he ventured out, 35mm camera in hand, to capture what was the Lombard RAC Rally…this was to become an annual event. In recent years, Chris set up JCB Photography and has attended Motorsport events such as Harewood Speed Hillclimb, Thorsby Park Sprint, Rallying and Rallycross. When it comes to shooting motorsport these days, Chris says ‘thank goodness for digital cameras’.
