Congrats Matthew on a spectacular pair, must have been very special to observe a flight like that and even more exciting to get home and find such a fine photo on your card.
Also congrats to Stefano and Ine for their runner up status, two very fine photos as well. |

The shot is an interesting capture; myself, I like the human element of it, with the pilot of the higher plane looking out the window. At what? The crowd? Turns out, I have some other angles that demonstrate that the pilot is merely looking down at his partner's plane actually flying alongside and below, as well as upside-down. The stack is an illusion. Thanks for your votes, everyone. I'll be a proud holder of the coveted Dyxum patch! |

Congratulations on an exceptional trio of images, each different, each special.
Regardless of any illusional perspective in the winner, it is an incredible image - scary looking. |

forgive me for asking (just curious ), but are you saying the action wasn't as daredevilish and scary (!!!) as it looks? that your photo is actually a composite, constructed from more than 1 pic, 'glued' together? |

It is a single picture. I'll post a couple if other shots in open views so can see that the pilot can look out and see the belly of the other plane as it isn't directly below.
