Mid-air Bicycle at Skatepark-2

This is the same bmx rider as in the photograph in the previous post. Different ramp and angle. I moved much closer to the ramp, got more in front and crouched low. Lens set at 50mm here. The rider is getting more height than before but the angle really contributes to the sense of action. The bike came from camera-right and up the ramp, turned in 90 degrees in mid-air and came down on the ramp facing me. I started shooting as soon as he became airborne. This is the fourth frame in the sequence, at maximum height.
