Normally I“m not that much for "actionscenes" but you have pulled this one off nicely - especially the irregularity of the torpedohit and the red streaks in the smoke is convincing, allso thanks to a well done photojob with sense for composition.

... in short - very nice work!

Hi Karl

Great action (as Jan already mentioned) and good composition!
You are taking the smoke/water effects to another level and making the displays more tridimensional in every finished project!

Cheers,

Thanks guys for the feedback. Yes, photography, especially in the larger scales, is a challenge and I'm glad to show some geometric progression on that matter (after all, look at the miserable photography on "Steer 230"...)

After a series of splash and blast scenes, I will next introduce something much more 'serene'.
