This is an awesome shot. It almost appears you were above eye level from a cliff looking across a valley which gives it a great perspective. My only nit is I wish it had a little more room so the wings weren't slightly cut off.

Saurav, beautiful takeoff shot. Love the wing spread. A bit tight, but one to be proud of.

Superb shot, just wish you had zoomed out slightly but I realize this happened in a fraction of a second.

Thanks all for your kind words, specially to Mr. Peiker to understand the shooting circumstances.
