If you’re anything like me, the Porsche 962 isn’t just a race car. It’s a legend wrapped in sleek curves and raw power. And when it comes to capturing that spirit on your wall, nothing beats a Porsche 962 wall art piece.

Back then, photographers had the freedom to wander in and out of garages, talk to anyone, and generally move around as long as we respected the space. So I stepped right in, introduced myself as a UPI photographer, and asked Petty if he’d mind if I got on the floor to make a few photos of him under the car. His reply was simple:“Knock yourself out.”

Over the years, my photography has grown through two distinct eras — the pre-2000 film years and the digital era beginning in 2001. To share that full creative journey, I’ve separated my work into two dedicated Instagram accounts: @35mmbcpix, home to my archival film photography, and @bcpix, where my digital archive lives and continues to evolve.
