I was honored to be given the chance to take the official Pace Car photos for this year's Indianapolis 500. Had never done rolling shots of a car before - that was a blast.

Nikon Z9, non-VR F-Mount 24-70 f/2.8. 3 stop ND on the rolling shots. CPL on the static shots.

Zemlin, sounds like being the official pace car photog is a big deal when it's at Indy, Congrats!!!
So for mthe rolling shots did you at least get to hang perilously from a boom of the side of a camera truck?? Great shots.
Since when is the Corvette a rear engine?

Thanks.
I'm not a corvette nerd, but according to the google it looks like it went mid engine in 2020.
I was in the back of my VW wagon for the rolling shots. At least I can say my car turned a few laps at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, even if I wasn't the driver.

Great shots, Zemlin. I really like them all, but the overhead shot is a cool perspective.

I'll admit that I was not expecting such an incredible photo when I opened this post. You've definitely proved your worth and skill with that first image. I'm not a big car person, but that first image is just fantastic. Wow!

Zemlin, all amazing shots. What did you have to do to get the overhead shot? The overcast day was perfect lighting for this subject. Awesome panning job also!

Thank you (and others) for the kind words. The overhead was shot from the flag stand.
