WOW what an awesome photo, surely one of the most action packed on the database, both aircraft climbing like homesick Angels - long live the Tornado!!

Very Good exposure and composition by Berry ,given the high movements of Subjects.Thanks & all the best

Stunning pic. In responce to the american who thinks the second Tonka is doing a 'dump and burn' your wrong mate. Its releasing flares. The Tornado can't 'dump and burn' as the fuel dump is on the tail, just above the rudder. Timo

What an incredible action shot! Usually I'm not a big fan of the Tornado, but this is really outstanding!

A visitor from Canada posted Mon May 26, 2008:
Amazing!!!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Fri April 25, 2008:
Who says flares are out of fashion? lol

This is one hell of a shot, I wish I was the one taking it! Great job!

A visitor from United States posted Tue April 22, 2008:
Fantastic action! I think the second aircraft is dumping fuel which catches fire in the hot exhaust. F-111s used to do this. Well planned!

A visitor from United States posted Tue February 19, 2008:
Wow that is a pretty amazing shot. is that the afterburners or flares?

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Fri February 15, 2008:
This must be the best action shot I've seen this year. You can almost hear the sound, feel the G-forces and see the rapid motion. Excellent timing, good composition, impressive sharpness and field of deph for such a shot. The slight lens flare on in the lower right part only adds sparks to the heat and motion. I love it!

A visitor from United States posted Wed January 9, 2008:
Spectacular... I only wish I was in one of those beasts.

A visitor from United States posted Wed January 9, 2008:

Spectacular shot!

What a beautiful shot! Just a soaring, gorgeous composition of a couple guys operating a couple of machines in a manner the vast majority of us will unfortunately never get to experience.

A visitor from United States posted Fri December 21, 2007:
Beauty! I can almost hear the roar of the afterburners through the photo.

WOW!!! That is really some action! The best shot I have seen this year!! Perfect light, perfect composition (that must have been great coordination between the pilots and the photographer!). Congrats Berry!! Best regards, Walter

A visitor from Sweden posted Fri December 21, 2007:
Waahoo!!! Were they trying to reach the space??

A visitor from Qatar posted Fri December 21, 2007:
Absolutely terrific capture, very sharp considering how much movement there must've been at the time, what is quite interesting to me is the 3 aircraft flying tight formation in the vertical with so much action

A visitor from Germany posted Fri December 21, 2007:
Nice, the right one almost looks like it's powered by solid rocket boosters ;)

A visitor from - posted Fri December 21, 2007:
The two planes next to each other on a tilted background gives so much action to this shot!!!!!!
