Jay is great. This was the best boating weekend I have ever had. I got to ride in the boats while jumping and drive one of the Carver's while the jumping (or flying) was going on. A thread with some more of the action.

Someone ...
figures the postprocessing should be obvious
and yeah, that weekend was a special one for the ages
Tyson was like a bulldog with that boat- I bet he hit Jim's wake a couple dozen times.
Thanks, Matt!
edit- the final result should be interesting to view, shoot to averages / tweak to specifics re exposure, saturation and contrast. also, 90% of it is just showin up.

I have had the absolute privilege to look at thousands of great go-fast boat photos over the years, and now at Sportboat I get to make the final selection, and I have never seen one that captures the launch angle and energy so well.
How often do you see that, I mean really see it in the fraction of a second it takes?
It's more than "just showin' up," my friend. You have an eye.
