Pavement cars sit pretty low, so it's probably the angle from a standing photographer to a lower car.

This is the image I originally wanted to post...ran out of patience trying to figure out how to delete my original post

I think some mistake the term "THE LOOK" Or maybe its me. But to me its the (LOOK of determination of a gladiator about to do combat)

I assume your comment was directed at my photo of Chase. Of course I understand the concept of “the look” as do the other photogs who’ve posted some really neat pix on this thread. I had a couple of shots I thought about posting. But, ever since the first time I saw the “look” of utter exhilaration on his face after his first sprint win, especially considering the tragedy he endured during the season, I’ve loved this photo. I thought it wouldn’t matter if I bent the concept a bit. But, thanks for setting me straight!

The quality of your work and pleasure that it has brought to open wheel fans over the years requires no explanation. Thank you for taking your time to share.
