    Tomorrow is the 100th running of the Indy 500. During the 50th running, in 1966, cars looked a lot like this Gerhardt. It's hard to believe that over half of the 500s have been run with mostly rear-engined cars.

    Today's Brickyard 400 marks Tony Stewart's last NASCAR race in Indianapolis. (That is, unless he does a one-off like Jeff Gordon.) Here's the car he drove in 2006, photographed in 2016 at the Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational.

    York Fair, Pennsylvania. This is the oldest, continually running fair in the country -- started in 1765.

    I had a full and busy summer. One of the highlights was photographing the NY Collegiate Baseball League All-Star Game which included a Home Run Derby. I got right out in front of the hitters (behind a safety net mind you) and got some great shots. Here's one of the winner.
