POTW 22nd April 2013Over the years I have seen many photographs on this forum that have been outstanding, not only in their content but in the expertise of the photographer.
This week I have the honour of presenting POTW to an outstanding photo and photographer - Nikon boy. This photo is an example of what we all strive for - that moment in time when our finger fires the shutter and we have a memorable photo in the can. A hearty congratulations Nikon boy Chris

Re: POTW 22nd April 2013Still awesome :)
Re: POTW 22nd April 2013It's been said, but this is one of the great photos. Right time and right place with the necessary skills. Well done Norman, on POTW. If we had a POTY (do we have one?), this is the Black Caviar of entries.
Ozi.
Re: POTW 22nd April 2013Thank You all very much for the kind words and POTW !!!!
I do remember saying to myself ''concentrate, hold steady, and double/triple checking my settings through the viewfinder then anticipating and letting the D3s shutter fire away i am prone to jumping involuntarily at loud bangs and when the explosions went off i did jump but luckily steadied in time I remember looking at the viewfinder without my glasses on thinking ''gee that might be a reasonable set''......''If they are in focus'' Ya know what I RECKON I WAS JUST LUCKY !!!!!! Cheers Norm

"Luck is when preparation meets opportunity". (Jack Gibson circa 1985?) You were prepared and grabbed the opportunity. Again, well done.
Re: POTW 22nd April 2013You got the easy POTW Chris. How could this not have been the winner. A striking image.
