JOHN BAYLY PROFILE
Took an interest in rallying during the 1980's when the glorious sound of Quattros and Mantas warmed up freezing cold Easter mornings while negiotiating the famous BLACKHALL Stage. Today most events are covered from single stage events, Irish Forestry Championship, Pirelli Irish Tarmac Championship And the Dunlop National Rally Championship. Holidays taken during the year are centred around wrc trips.
First Real Rally memory: Austin Mc Hales black manta.
Rallying Heroes. Austin Mc Hale & Didier Auriol.
Favourite Rally Car. Toyota Corolla WRC.
Favourite Rally: Donegal & Tour De Corse.
WHY PHOTOGRAPHY.
Photography always captured my imagination and I always had a camera of some sort handy from an early age. The bug bit when I bought my first Rally Yearbook and the photography of the French man Pascal Huit. The years spent by the ditches lead to many acquanitances and what are now friendships being formed and contacts made and have lead to over 50 days rallying each year for the last 3 years.
Favourite Rally Photographer: Pascal Huit.
DAYTIME JOB:
Project Engineer for a mechanical services company to the pharmaceutical industry.
AMBITION
To earn a reasonable income from rallyfile and to help promote the great sport of rallying. To attend all 16 rounds of the FIA World Championship as a photographer for 1 year.
