You are not alone on this, I went to a Mountainbike downhill race the other weekend and got about 10 nice sharp images out of about 150 shots, the others were usable but not as competition stuff.

But going back to your image, this is another one of your great shots, I'm sure that there will be more to come.

Same thing struck me Steve, like the sea don't know what's about to hit it!
My success rate is much lower than Barry's...

Hey buddy. I realise that many of the airbourne pics will be of the same angle. just varying in the content of your day to day life of being a real life angel dude. Then I thought....Hey! This guy could just turn the cam on himself and do a fantastic self portrait!

Respect mate.

As for the shot? Action frozen. By way of a change its an action shot that is not leisure based. Thumbs up
