FEATURE: 2011 In Pictures: Jordan Butters
I'm sure I say it every year but, what an amazing year! Believe it or not we're heading into our third year of Drifted here, an idea that was rather hastily conceived back in November 2009 to fill a void we saw in good quality, self generated drift coverage and content. The key phrases for us were, and still are, self-generated and quality. My favourite shots of 2011 may not all contain drifting as you know it, but for me they sum up the feelings and emotions experienced this year in drifting. -
