Hey kids, here's the "not-so-funny-car" shot.

In all seriousness, I sadly thought of Macnutt and his tragic death.

Sorry, did not mean to derail this thread, but this is what I first thought of when I saw the picture.

During a drag race last month at Pomona Raceway in California, Steve Gasparrelli's Ford Mustang spun off right at the start of the race and immediately began crashing towards a row of photographers protected only by a small temporary barrier. Most of the photographers scurried out of the way, fearful for their lives. Andy Wilsheer did not, and while his courage was boneheaded at best and near-fatal at worst, it did allow him to obtain some amazing photos and also the respect of people everywhere for his gutsy performance. I wish this guy had been there when that million dollar car wrecked in Hong Kong, then we might have had some better shots of it.
Now am I saying its good he did this because the photos are that amazing? No, but still you have to respect someone so passionate about their work that they are willing to risk life and limb to accomplish it. But seriously Andy, just get out of the way next time, okay?

He looks older... not to jab at those of a more experienced age but maybe his reflexes are shot and he knew he couldn't move outta the way and said "the hell with it, if I'm gonna die, it's gonna be doing what I love"... or maybe he couldn't see the car derailing as he has his vision glued to the view finder. ;)
