GROUP A - SCORE 88
JUDGES: Boris Gabay 87 | Robert Lino 89
This was taken on a bluff over looking the Pacific Ocean. That is Santa Cruz Island in the background. This fellow would fly his airplane in the updrafts created by an onshore breeze. I took numerous shots to try to capture the moment of peak action of the launch. 1/5000, f-3.5, ISO 200. I used Photo Shop to take out a oil platform in the background and a wind vane pole that was in front of the man.
