Very good capture; a nice image well timed. The sailplane's wings are lifting, just about to liftoff into the sky.

Might I suggest a slightly different crop? I'd suggest pulling in the sides tighter, and making it more of a vertical/portrait shape. I think this adds more constriction to the plane as it sits on the ground, and implies the freedom that can be obtained in the sky.

Or maybe I'm just full of hooey. You decide; this is what I was thinking of.

Great catch! Here in Minnesota, we only caught the smallest of displays from this one.

That's also a really nice scene to showcase them with; I love the backlit trees.

This is from my first ever attempt at sports photography. Any tips

for me to take with me on my next time out?
