A cracking action shot.Perhaps a bit too much room at the top but still a very well timed capture with bags of impact.
Cheers, Gary

First test, very good result, I think it needs a slight levels tweak though, excellent action shot

Thanks for the great comments guys - I'm so impressed with the K5 - I used to do some surf pics with the K20d, but this is of a whole different class.
