An amazing capture, Scott! Big congrats on your POTD! Thanks for the info... must try to take a shot like this!!!

I appreciate the kind comments! This shot was one of the last taken during multiple setup attempts and a few hundred shots on three different days. After learning, and refining the technique, the keeper ratio improved substantially. It was a lot of fun, kind of like fishing, because I didn't know in advance what I might catch. :)

Yup, I would agree that an awesome shot like this requires precise, split second timing. I really like the colors to and the blend of the blues with the lighting. Congratulations, Scott, on a superb image!!!
