Description
Driver Mike Beegle roars through a straight section of the course at the 2016 River Roar power boat races in Bay City, Michigan. These boats can reach speeds well in excess of 100 miles per hour.
This image was captured by panning the camera at the speed of the boat, rendering the boat in focus and the background in blur. The two parallel black lines above the boat are the rails of a fence that separates the fans in the bleachers from the action on the water.
