Wow! Thanks for all the great comments, and votes....I've been away for the last three days, and just got home before rollover...I'm one happy camper!

In response to Jorge's question, this image was taken during a display on a very cloudy day, (the rider was 20-30 feet in the air). A little tweek of 'Curves' in processing brought up the white background.

Not so sure I like the bright white background. Also seems a bit oversharpened. But a great capture.
