Great 3D effect here Gerrie. It seems the giant is just about to burst through the image. I like the angle, light and you certainly nailed the sharpness. This guy better be there when I come up and visit. ;)

Tough to get one of these speeders flying right at you, but you've done it quite well! Congrats!

Very nice flight shot...well done

[Colin Knight]

Well done! As others have said, it's quite sharp and shows some impressive technique.

I wish the wings were down just a bit more.

[Arthur Morris]

I generally do not like this wing position at all but for this speeding bullet I will make an exception. :)
