p.1 #1 · #449 Don't Move!


I imagine the motorcycle rider saying, "Don't Move!"

This was shot here in Indianapolis during the Friday practice for the Indy Air Show. The Blue Angel jet team also performs.

I bow in owe. Timing and composition are superb. It looks as if he is holding the wing.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Hi Yakim,

Thanks for your nice comment. I was amazed when I shot this because I had no idea the cycle rider would reach up and grab the wingtip like that. He is actually holding it!

That is awesome! Great capture and awesome panning skills! About how fast do you estimate they were moving?

Thank you,

I think they were going around 130mph. The bike is capable of speeds up to 175mph!

Great panning action Mark, and although on their own two typical subjects for panning, capturing them together as such is definitely unique. Good luck!

Thanks David,

I thought the same thing about seeing the two vehicles together for this shot. it is interesting to me to see the in-air machine connected to the on-ground machine via the person.
