Outside the Racing Line

[Jaedon]

This shot happened almost by accident. I was panning cars at 1/40th of a second when one of the cars spun out and crashed in front of me. I was preparing to take a shot of the driver exiting the car when I remembered I was shooting at a slow shutter. So I waited for the perfect opportunity to get a creative looking shot.... and ...well...here's the result.

Outside the Racing line: When a car has crashed and is outside the racing line the participants are usually allowed to run until a marshal deems it unsafe. This was just before the Yellow Flag was raised to slow down the field and allow the driver to exit his car.
