Contextual Studies Essay.

[Jowanee]

Hi guys,
Does anyone know of any ethical/unethical things in motorsport that I could talk about in an photography essay?
The essay is meant to have a theme (I want mine to be based on photography within motorsport, if that makes sense).

For example, if there's an issue with photographers during motorsporting events, like restricted access or something more serious?

Any ideas welcome. Thanks.

Unethical is quite a strong word.
Issues? As amateur togs it would be accessing areas not allowed for safety. If the marshals are dealing with a tog they might not be available to deal with other issues.

Obstructing other togs, obstructing the marshals?

Ethics? Imagine there's a crash, at which point do you publish photos.

Amateur photographers taking work from professionals? The industry is saturated with amateurs now and even unaccredited photographers submiting work.
