    What an amazing shot! How did you manage to capture this? I can't believe it was just "luck".

    BTW, I used to live in Cape Canaveral. Lots of good photo opportunities in that area, both natural and man-made (launches and such).

    Congratulations on the picture. It belongs in National Geographic.

    Wow Russ, thanks for such a high compliment! The story on this one is I spotted this skimmer working a small canal near KARS park in Merritt Island. I stood right on the side of the canal and shot as he flew by. It was difficult as he was almost flying at me or straight away so I had a short window. After about 10 to 15 shots I ended up with two keepers. I was satisfied. Here is the other keeper from that session and one other from another day.
    Cheers, Rod
