Skyrider
The GT Airshow at Sea Otter, CA
I’m glad I got this photo when I did. Their planned shows for Saturday and Sunday had to be cancelled due to high winds. This photo here shows how windy.

Ha HB, I did totally do that. Its pretty amazing because he's just float riding.
I have more sky in the original and may have to play with that.

that is sweet...i was hoping to get some cool bmx and gravity shots on Saturday...but instead I just wanted to curl up in a little ball in the corner of a warm, not windy spot...so I did.

Oooh, no vignette! Holy crap!
Terry's comment: It would be better with a vignette, as it would highlight flying bicycle guy in mid-air...he's a goof.
He does need an intervention...more beer drinking and less vignetting.

Great capture, he is completely upside down. I was hoping someone caught the guy who was riding a motorcycle in a tight space doing freestyle tricks too.

n.l.s. - our booth was next to this airshow, so it was easy snapping pics of it, but hard to wander anywhere else. I could only hear the motorcycle show...

I'm gonna make terry some vignette glasses he can wear so he will have a vignette everywhere he goes.
life is better through a vignette
