Superb flight shot, Mark. They are so hard to catch, I am astonished you got the wings stopped at that speed. :t: :t: :t:
 
Good to have anywhere. Nice work. Did you slave the flashes or use remote sensors? Good image. :t: :t: :t:
 
Thanks everyone.

digi - the flashes were triggered with remotes (pocket wizards).
