Another great shot! I really like the background.

Wow is right. This would be a great shot without that background, but the BG really adds to this. Way cool, Dan! :toast:

Thanks for the comments! I have this week off before I start my new job at Reed Photo, so I am sure I will be there again!

Great pose. I like how the background has just enough detail to provide context.
Congrats on the new job.

Beautiful, clean, action shot with high marks for showing the environment, while at the same time getting in close.
