Remembering the amazing day spent photographing the McGee Roadster for the October 2023 75th Anniversary Hot Rod Magazine cover story. What an incredible opportunity. A huge thank you to Hot Rod Magazine and John for the opportunity, The Petersen Automotive Museum for bringing the car to where it was shot on the campus of USC in 1948 and to Bruce Meyer for filling in for Bob McGee and for helping to make this happen. What a day!

It was just a few hours before the rains came and flooded the Bonneville lakebed at Speed Week 2022 and I was photographing Lucky Burton’s beautiful #523 LSR. As I was photographing one single fluffy cloud separated from the rest and hovered over the car for just a few moments. I tapped the shutter and thanked the photo gods for their blessing.
