Sometimes you wonder how these youngsters make it to maturity! Good image. Probably could have been made an eyestopper with a polarizer, but it's still super stop action. 7

Great pic. How did you take this one?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Great shot, I wanted to do the same, but couldn't find the chance. Great POV and detail.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2004 08:10:18 PM
Unbelievable! I can't think of any way to improve this picture, except to have it come out of MY camera! I gave it a 10 and expect it to bring home a ribbon!

Great shot!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2004 04:09:15 PM
Great catch, obviously you have a very nice camera. some color enhancing in photoshot would have made this a ribbon winner.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2004 03:02:59 PM
This is letting go AND hanging on....for dear life! Super clear shot. Perfect timing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2004 02:16:11 PM
Great capture, must've used a very high shutter speed, can't see any blur, even from the wheels. I think that leaving more room at the bottom, and less room at the top will give the shot a felling of the rifer falling down.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2004 01:06:55 PM
How many tries did that shot take?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

wow... wow... it´s a fantastic shot.... 10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/11/2004 02:28:25 AM
WOW, this is perfect photo. Like the huge dynamic range you catch. Very well exposed. It´s a typical photojournalism picture. Then what matter is the moment itself. And you catch it.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
