Now that is impressive!! This gives a really dramatic impression of this everyday event that we take so much for granted, yet never normally see. An excellent study of the moment of touchdown.

Photographically very good! Smart idea makes it outstanding first of all. Also very harmonically, I mean the composition of the picture: it is very classical example. Think a photo like this could be offered to tire manufacturer to be used in advertising.
