Yo, can't you get a blue? Red doesn't do so well with those pasty complexions one gets in the Canuck winters up here :P

I just had to tell you that my son (who is 6) actually stopped me tonight and made me scroll back up to your image and he clicked on it!

Congratulations. great image. It's good to see two Canadians in the top three. Maybe someday we'll be as good as those darn Icelanders.
Post actions
congrats on a great image!
Post actions
Congrats. I think this probably would have also done well in Impressionism. Now look at all those reds! This is starting to get suspicious. I bet you trolled your own image to avoid the blue. :P

Post actions
WOW - my top score. Crisp, great shot, good colors, unique view, and good spacing.
Post actions
Amazing shot how on earth did you capture it?
Post actions
Whoa!! Love the power displayed in this photo - the heat shimmer and the vapor build-up scream speed and power. Perfect choice for the challenge. Great photo. A 10. Good luck.
Post actions
One of my 10s! How did you capture that? Nice job!
Post actions

Nice colors and framing, the haze effects portrays the power very well

Awesome power of breaking the sound barrier - motor and all!

Sweet capture. One of my favs for this challenge 8

Fantastic! The best capture of a Raptor I've seen.
Post actions
Best so far. Never seen one with so much smoke, steam whatever it is. 10
Post actions
This is incredible...so far, my favorite of the challenge.
Post actions
Without wanting to use expletives, this is f**k**g superb.
Post actions
Very interesting effect - I like the way the silvery gray colors contrast so vibrantly with the glowing orange.
Post actions
Great capture! Love the distortion from the heat of the afterburners
Post actions
Outstanding photo. 'Ya got the sound to go with it?
Post actions
Tremendous. Absolutely nothing negative to comment - a very unique approach. I believe the distortion is from the hot air coming out of the exhaust. Perfect framing, color saturation, everything. Meets challenge perfectly. 10 from me.
Post actions
A tenner.... lovely capture...

This is an extraordinary image. First it fits the theme perfectly. Second, the vapor over the wings is perfectly caught, which is not easy. Third, the heat induced distortion powers up the image. And fourth, it's an uncommon jet so the subject is more interesting than "just another Blue Angel." I am an aviation enthusiast and know how hard it is to take extraordinary pictures of airplanes. This is superb!
Post actions
Absolutely Amazing! What lens did you use on this? Was it at an air show? Crisp image, just fantastic.
Post actions
This is a freaking awesome photo, crap I am jealous.
Post actions
VERY cool shot.
Post actions
this is just beautiful. 10
Post actions
Beautiful. I like the motion, being blur by the heated air. And teh BG is just nice. A great shot!
Post actions
Realy great capture... congrats...
Post actions
wow...now that's what I call powerful!
Post actions
Thats a very cool photo of a fighter jet.
Post actions
I think this is done legally but the uneven blur from the afterburners may throw some people for a loop, maybe see if you can get it validated. Good display of power. 9
Post actions
Nice and tight crop...good angle, I really like it.
