Excellnt shot.Next Setember here in Porto we will have the Red Bull Air Race 2010, it is a nice opportunity to get some good photos...if I get the chance of a good place to see it, because normally there will be more than 600.000 thoushand people in the area of the race.
Have nice day.

Thanks Antonio!:) I hope you manage to secure a good place to see and take photos of your Red Bull Air Race! It sounds very exciting! But having to elbow 600,000 people aside to get good shots might be a real challenge! #8843525
