Thank you.

I've no idea about coverage... but you sound like a bit of an expert in such matters, so I'll make sure to stand behind you.

Perfect timing! Also very well framed and makes for a dramatic image.

Kind Regards

Thank you very much.

I will confess that the this image it is actually a two shot composite… one for each cannon when firing.

So does that count as perfect timed x 2?
