Rally van Kortrijk 2025
Rally van Kortrijk is built from contrasts: long quiet waits followed by a few seconds of noise, movement and total concentration. Photographing it on film makes those short passes feel even more deliberate.
A rally stage gives very little time to correct a composition. I chose the corner, watched how the first cars moved through it and then committed to the frame before the next car appeared. The uncertainty is part of why film still feels right here.
Beyond the action, there are small scenes that hold the day together: marshals checking the road, spectators listening for the next engine and service crews working through a list without wasting a movement.
The finished photographs are less about documenting every competitor and more about remembering the sensation of the event—the cold roadside air, the sudden speed and the silence returning as quickly as it disappeared.
