Holy cow!! There's being in the right place at the right time, but you still have to be able to capitalize on that! Truly amazing shot, Robert! The clarity of the moment is stellar. I could ask for the exif info, but only as a matter of curiosity. I don't think I'd ever be able to duplicate anything approaching this one. A hearty congrats to you!

I too just ran across this in Featured Imaqes. I can see why it is being featured. I agree with Michael about it being SI material. You have set the bar high for the rest of us. That's a good thing. Excellent capture and the extremely high marks are deserved. They should be higher Robert.

A perfect 10 if the rider only put his feet together and pointed his toes. But your photo is an 11. One of the best EVER on Caedes. If you publish this one, it would win awards. I will not bore you with superlatives except, OUTSTANDING.

Great Superman shot!! Whenever I shoot these guys, I always seem to have a boring blue sky. I like the clouds as a backdrop.
What shutter speed were you using? It looks to be at least 1/1000 since the tires are sharp

My long absence caused me to miss this posting. So many above mention being at the right place/right time ! There's some merit to that conclusion, however, how many members could produce the result you did by being at the "right place and at the right time" ? As far as photographic talent goes ... You my friend are in a class that has but a few members. Regardless of subject matter ... the results are always the same ... EXTRAORDINARY
